A 5843 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires BPU to allow certain bidding practices during basic generation service auctions.

This bill requires New Jersey's Board of Public Utilities (BPU) to allow electricity suppliers to bid for one-, two-, or three-year supply periods in Basic Generation Service (BGS) auctions for Residential Small Commercial Pricing (RSCP) customers. Currently, RSCP customers' bills average three-year contracts, but this change would let suppliers bid for shorter terms. The BPU must select the most price-competitive bids, aiming to potentially lower costs by reducing pricing uncertainty. It does not apply to commercial or industrial customers (CIEP class).
