Gov. Phil Murphy signed two new bills in Trenton this afternoon aimed at curbing rising electricity costs across New Jersey.
The legislation comes after a 20% price hike hit customers in June, prompting many to call for relief.
Murphy said $430 million was released in June to help offset bills and push utilities to spread out summer charges.
The new bills will expand solar power access to one million homes over the next three years and create new jobs in the clean energy sector.
