Summary

The bill lets customers install move‑able solar generators that plug into a regular 120‑volt outlet, as long as the device meets safety codes, is UL‑certified, and includes a feature that stops it from feeding power back during an outage. Customers must notify their electric provider at least 15 days before use, and utilities cannot charge fees or require extra agreements. Landlords with multiple rentals cannot forbid tenants from placing these devices, though they may set reasonable size or placement limits.
