Minnesota SF3873 regulates the installation and operation of plug-in solar photovoltaic devices.

Minnesota SF3873 establishes regulations for the installation and operation of plug-in solar photovoltaic devices, which are portable systems intended to offset electricity consumption, with a maximum power output of 1,200 watts. These devices can connect with on-site energy storage systems and must be listed or certified by a recognized testing laboratory. The bill exempts these devices from entering interconnection agreements with electric utilities and from net metering provisions. Additionally, electric utilities are not liable for damages or injuries caused by these devices.
