Bill overview
This bill requires New Jersey’s electric service providers, like utilities, to consider and integrate energy storage systems into their long-term planning. It directs the Board of Public Utilities (BPU) to develop rules and regulations for procuring these systems, aiming to improve grid reliability, reduce energy costs, and minimize the need for new power generation. The BPU must also ensure that any existing energy storage projects are not negatively impacted.
