Requires certain large developments, to be used as retail facility or warehouse, to be designed and constructed to accommodate load associated with solar panels.

This bill requires new retail facilities and warehouses larger than 75,000 square feet to be designed with roofs capable of supporting solar panels. Specifically, the roof structure must accommodate the weight of solar systems covering at least 40% of the roof area (minus certain features like skylights), regardless of panel type or weather conditions. It applies to buildings where construction permits were not finalized before the bill's effective date, and mandates the Department of Community Affairs to establish detailed design standards. The law aims to make future solar installations on large commercial buildings more feasible and cost-effective.
