New Jersey has launched a stakeholder input campaign for its community solar program as the state prepares to solicit interest for 250 MW of capacity next year after two nearly fully subscribed allocations in the program’s first 12 months.

Solar developers are urging the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities to extend the completion timelines in the agency’s proposed storage development plan.

New Jersey regulators plan a new solicitation for the state’s Competitive Solar Incentive program on Oct. 1 after rejecting initial bids as too expensive.  

N.J. regulators approved two remote net metering projects totaling more than 250 kWdc as lawmakers consider a bill to make development of such projects easier.

New Jersey's proposal to award solar RECs through annual procurements with incentives for projects incorporating storage won initial support from stakeholders.

New Jersey is implementing a plan to create a permanent community solar program built on the experience of two rounds of a pilot initiative.

Solar developers say New Jersey's delay in announcing the winners of the second community solar pilot program is causing some to lose faith in the initiative.
