Summary
The bill amends the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 to direct each state to consider measures promoting portable solar generation devices (plug-in panels up to 1,200 watts), including exempting them from interconnection agreements and net metering requirements and barring utilities from requiring approval, insurance, fees, or extra controls for their use. It sets deadlines for state regulators to act on this standard and authorizes a $100 million-per-year DOE grant program, for fiscal years 2027 through 2032, for point-of-sale rebates of up to $1,000 for low- and moderate-income households. The bill also requires state grant recipients to bar landlords from prohibiting tenants from using such devices, with certain reasonable restrictions permitted, and directs the FTC to create a voluntary savings label and the Consumer Product Safety Commission to issue a safety standard.
