Concerning the photovoltaic module stewardship and takeback program.

The requirement to establish a photovoltaic module advisory committee is now subject to the availability of appropriated funds.

The deadline for a manufacturer to provide a stewardship plan after notification of a national program's discontinuation was changed from thirty days to 30 days.

The definition of 'photovoltaic module installer' was updated to specify that it applies only to installers working on the customer's side of the meter.

The requirement for a 'photovoltaic module project developer' to be on the advisory committee was removed as a standalone category.

A new category was added for 'utility scale photovoltaic module project developer' to ensure large-scale project interests are represented.

New members were added to the advisory committee to include 'photovoltaic module recycling industry expertise' and a 'labor organization representing workers in the electrical industry'.

The bill's reading date was updated from January 13, 2025, to February 10, 2025, reflecting its progression through the legislative process.

The deadline for manufacturers to submit stewardship plans was moved from January 31, 2028, to January 31, 2030.

The prohibition on selling photovoltaic modules without an approved stewardship plan was delayed from July 1, 2025, to January 31, 2031.

The deadline for the advisory committee to submit its final report was extended from June 1, 2026, to June 1, 2028.

The expiration date for the advisory committee section was extended from July 1, 2028, to July 1, 2030.

The bill was moved from the Environment, Energy & Technology committee to the Ways & Means committee, suggesting a greater emphasis on the financial and economic aspects of the program.
