Distributed energy retailers must provide residential customers a detailed disclosure document before contract signing, including total aggregate cost (in bold/highlighted), energy generation guarantees, warranty information, installer credentials, and fee descriptions, with violations subject to civil penalties up to $10,000 per violation

The Attorney General must convene an advisory group to develop a standard disclosure form by July 1, 2025, with representatives from distributed energy retailers, utilities, residential property owners, and assistant attorneys general

Utilities must approve or deny interconnection applications within 90 calendar days and compensate customers for exported energy at no less than 100% of the utility's monthly avoided cost, with options to use locational marginal pricing or monthly system average cost

Total capacity limits for parallel generation service increase incrementally: 6% of utility's historic peak demand starting July 1, 2025; 7% starting July 1, 2026; and 8% starting July 1, 2027 and thereafter

System sizing is determined by dividing customer's previous 12-month consumption by 8,760 hours, then dividing by a capacity factor of 0.144 for investor-owned utilities or 0.288 for cooperatives and municipal utilities, rounded up to the nearest kilowatt
