Removes project capacity limit for community solar energy projects.
This bill removes the five-megawatt size limit for individual community solar energy projects in New Jersey. Previously, each project could not exceed five megawatts, but the new law allows projects of any size to participate in the Community Solar Energy Program. The change applies to all projects registered after the bill's enactment, affecting solar developers and utility customers who use community solar. Other program requirements, such as low-income customer access and land use rules, remain unchanged.
