Requires BPU to allow low- and moderate-income residential customers to self-attest to income for participation in community solar programs.

This bill (A4359) would require New Jersey's Board of Public Utilities (BPU) to create rules allowing low- and moderate-income residential customers to self-attest to their income - instead of providing traditional documentation like tax returns - to qualify for community solar programs. It directly affects low- and moderate-income households seeking to join community solar projects established under existing law (P.L.2018, c.17). The key mechanism is replacing strict income verification with a simplified self-attestation process, defined by the BPU in its rules. This change aims to reduce barriers for qualifying households in accessing community solar benefits.
