Overview
This bill establishes limits on zoning restrictions for the installation of small electric battery storage equipment in New Jersey. It designates such equipment as a permitted accessory use and structure at residential properties, eliminating the need for a variance. For commercial and industrial properties, the bill streamlines the approval process, removing the requirement for site plan review and variance relief, and requiring only a zoning permit if certain conditions are met. The bill also directs power companies to collaborate with developers on these installations and mandates the publication of a model ordinance to address installation requirements.
