Requires public utility to charge nonprofit organization residential rate.

This bill requires New Jersey public utilities to charge nonprofit organizations the residential electricity or gas rate - instead of the higher commercial rate - for services at the property where the nonprofit primarily operates, if the residential rate is lower. It applies to organizations recognized as tax-exempt under IRS Section 501(c)(3), such as community centers or shelters. Utilities must create a simple process for nonprofits to verify their status, working with the Board of Public Utilities. The law takes effect immediately upon passage.
