AI Summary

This bill requires the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU) to develop a program to promote certain energy businesses in the state, including women-owned, minority-owned, veteran-owned, and LGBTQ-owned businesses. The program aims to increase the percentage of natural gas and electricity purchased by business customers and public entities through board-licensed energy agents, energy consultants, or private energy aggregators from these types of energy businesses over the next four years, reaching a 25% target by the fourth year. The bill outlines the criteria for businesses to qualify for the program, the application process, and the BPU's responsibility to track and report on the progress of the program.
