Summary

The bill creates a new category for portable solar generation devices that meet safety standards and are under 1,200 watts. These devices can be plugged into a standard 120‑volt outlet without utility approval, fees, or extra equipment, and utilities are not liable for any resulting damage. It is intended to make it easier for homeowners to use small solar kits to offset their electricity use.
