Bill Summary
This bill revises the provisions of the "Electric Discount and Energy Competition Act," P.L.1999, c.23 (C.48:3-51 et al.) to include fusion within the definition of Class I renewable energy.
AI Summary
This bill adds fusion to the list of Class I renewable energy sources as defined in the Electric Discount and Energy Competition Act. Specifically, the bill modifies the existing definition of "Class I renewable energy" by inserting the word "fusion" among other renewable energy technologies like solar, wind, geothermal, and wave or tidal energy. This means that electric energy produced from fusion technologies would now be considered a Class I renewable energy source in New Jersey, which could potentially make fusion energy eligible for renewable energy incentives or credits. The change is straightforward and serves to update the state's legal definition of renewable energy to include fusion as an emerging clean energy technology. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
