AI Summary

This bill aims to further regulate solar net metering projects in Massachusetts. It proposes to amend the state's laws to limit each customer of a distribution company to a maximum of one equal access solar net metering project per parcel of land, with an exception for agricultural net metering facilities where multiple parcels owned or leased by a single agricultural business can be considered as one parcel if they are separated by a public or private way or a waterway.
