Requires electric public utilities to provide priority service restoration to age-restricted communities after major events.

S 811 requires New Jersey electric utilities to prioritize restoring power to age-restricted communities (developments for residents 55+ years old) after major power outages caused by events like storms or disasters. Utilities must annually ask residential customers if they live in such communities; those who confirm get designated for priority restoration. The bill mandates the Board of Public Utilities to create rules for this process but specifies that priority efforts cannot delay restoring power to areas critical for public safety, such as hospitals or emergency services. This policy directly affects residents in age-restricted communities and utilities managing power restoration after widespread outages.
