Requires electric public utilities to pre-place repair equipment in areas with frequent power outages.

This bill requires New Jersey electric public utilities to pre-position repair equipment in service areas that experience frequent power outages caused by high-risk events (like severe storms, heatwaves, or blizzards). Utilities must place this equipment 12-24 hours before such events and ensure it is regularly maintained and functional. The Board of Public Utilities will establish rules specifying the types of equipment needed and best practices for pre-positioning. The law applies to all utilities distributing electricity in the state, aiming to accelerate power restoration after disruptive weather.
