Bill overview
This bill changes regulations regarding renewable energy installations on preserved farmland in New Jersey. It specifically exempts biomass, solar, and wind energy systems located on rooftops or designated ‘exception areas’ from size restrictions. These restrictions previously limited the energy generation capacity and the amount of land the facilities could occupy. The amendment clarifies that this exemption applies only to preserved farmland, not other types of land.
