Prohibits BPU from retiring electric generation facilities in certain circumstances.

This bill prohibits New Jersey's Board of Public Utilities (BPU) from shutting down existing electricity generation facilities (called "covered facilities") unless the BPU first identifies replacement renewable energy facilities that can produce enough power to meet the same demand and become operational before the old facility closes. It specifically requires replacement facilities to be renewable sources like wind, solar, hydropower, or nuclear, connected to New Jersey's grid. The ban does not apply to facilities that are unsafe, non-functional, or threaten public health. The law directly affects the BPU's authority over power plant retirements and requires renewable energy projects to be ready before existing plants are closed.
