Establishes solar energy grant program in BPU to provide grants to public schools for solar energy projects; appropriates $15 million.

This bill establishes a $15 million solar energy grant program within New Jersey's Board of Public Utilities (BPU) to fund solar projects at public schools. Eligible recipients include school districts, educational services commissions, career/technical schools, and community colleges, with grants covering up to 50% of eligible project costs like solar panel installation and energy storage. The BPU must develop application guidelines, provide technical assistance related to federal funding, and require annual reports on program effectiveness. If a school facility with a solar project is sold within 20 years, the new owner must reimburse the BPU for a portion of the grant based on the sale timing.
