In plain language

The bill requires notice for energy storage system permit applications over one megawatt hour.

This bill mandates that applicants for permits to construct large energy storage systems must notify local officials and state legislators. The systems must exceed one megawatt hour and be primarily for commercial use.

Summary

Requires an applicant filing any application for a permit or authorization relating to the siting or construction of a qualified energy storage system that has a storage capacity greater than one megawatt hour, is connected to the local distribution system and primarily operated for commercial or electric retail purposes, and is not constructed in connection with a major renewable energy facility to provide notice of such application to the chief executive of the city, town, or village in which it is located and each member of the state legislature within whose district the proposed energy storage system is to be located.
