S 2803 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires BPU to post on its website report from public utility on public utility's capital investments in response to petition from public utility to increase rates.

This bill requires New Jersey public utilities (electric, gas, water, or sewer companies) to submit detailed reports on their capital investments when requesting rate increases from the Board of Public Utilities (BPU). The BPU must then review these reports within 30 days and post them on its website, removing any confidential business details before sharing. This makes utility investment data publicly accessible during rate case proceedings, increasing transparency for consumers and stakeholders. The law applies specifically to utilities filing rate increase petitions under state law and takes effect immediately upon passage.
