A2524

Permits dual-use solar energy projects to participate in community solar program.

Introduced·1/13/26

New Jersey A2524 allows dual-use solar energy projects to join the community solar program.

New Jersey A2524 amends the community solar energy program to include dual-use solar facilities. These facilities, which generate solar power on unpreserved farmland while allowing continued agricultural use, can now participate in the community solar program. This change allows them to earn credits on utility bills for the electricity they generate. Previously, only certain types of solar projects were eligible for the program. This bill expands eligibility to include dual-use or agrivoltaics facilities, potentially increasing participation and benefits for low and moderate-income customers.
