Bill overview
This bill authorizes the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (EDA) to use funds from the ‘Global Warming Solutions Fund’ to provide grants for replacing outdated and polluting agricultural equipment with more efficient alternatives. The fund, typically sourced from greenhouse gas emissions allowances, will now support farmers in upgrading their operations. The EDA will determine grant amounts and project criteria in consultation with the Board of Public Utilities and the Department of Environmental Protection, requiring applicants to demonstrate the decommissioning of old equipment.
