A 6262 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires BPU to pay for certain compliance costs of State energy policies.

This bill requires New Jersey's Board of Public Utilities (BPU) to cover certain costs that residential and commercial customers incur while complying with state energy policies, such as installing new equipment or making home electrical upgrades. The BPU must fund these payments using uncommitted monies from the societal benefits charge, the Global Warming Solutions Fund, and a settlement with Orsted. If those funds are exhausted, the BPU must use General Fund appropriations approved by the Legislature. The policy directly affects utility customers facing expenses tied to state-mandated energy initiatives like the Energy Master Plan.
