New Jersey A264 mandates generators for newly-constructed grocery stores to ensure continued operations during emergencies.

New Jersey A264 requires newly-constructed grocery stores, including supermarkets and convenience stores, to be equipped with automatic standby emergency power generators. This ensures that these stores can continue selling food and other basic necessities during power outages. The Department of Community Affairs, in consultation with the Commissioner of Environmental Protection, will create rules and regulations to implement this requirement.
