A 1219 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires NJ Clean Energy Program incentives be made available to commercial farms.

This bill requires New Jersey's Clean Energy Program (NJCEP) to make existing energy efficiency incentives available to commercial farms, which were previously excluded from the program's categories. It mandates the state energy agency to establish a program helping farm owners conduct energy audits to identify energy-saving opportunities and publish all relevant incentives online. Currently, farmhouses qualified under residential NJCEP categories, but commercial farm operations (like equipment and buildings) had no dedicated access to these incentives. The change directly affects commercial farm owners by enabling them to apply for and receive state-funded energy efficiency support.
