A 2599 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires electric public utility to charge residential rate for service used by residential customer for electric vehicle charging at charging stations within certain designated parking spaces.

This New Jersey bill requires electric utilities to charge residential electricity rates for service used at electric vehicle (EV) charging stations located in designated parking spaces reserved for a resident's exclusive use. It directly affects residential customers living in single-family homes, apartments, or planned developments (like condos) who use EV charging in their own garage, driveway, or a designated spot within their development. The bill mandates that utilities cannot charge commercial rates for such service, ensuring lower costs for homeowners using EVs at their residence. It also clarifies that planned developments can set their own prices for electricity sold through their charging stations, while the utility must still bill at the residential rate for the electricity delivered.
