"Garden State Balcony Solar Act"; exempts portable solar generation devices from certain requirements, and requires certain entities to allow use and installation of portable solar generation devices.*

Summary

The bill defines a portable solar generation device as a moveable panel of 1,200 watts or less that plugs into a standard 120‑volt outlet. It would free owners of such devices from having to obtain utility interconnection agreements, pay fees, or install extra equipment, and would stop utilities from being liable for any damage caused by the devices. It also requires the Department of Community Affairs to adopt or amend building‑code rules that guide how homes can be wired for these panels.
