Establishes uptime requirement for electric vehicle charging station incentive programs.
This bill requires electric vehicle (EV) charging stations receiving state incentives under New Jersey law to operate at least 95% of the time annually. It directly affects businesses or organizations installing EV charging equipment that seek state funding, such as through the 2019 law (P.L.2019, c.362). The Board of Public Utilities (BPU) must create a system to measure uptime, monitor compliance, and enforce this requirement. The bill does not change existing incentive programs but adds a new operational standard for stations receiving state support. It takes effect immediately upon enactment.
