This bill aims to prevent any State agency, county, or municipality in New Jersey from enacting rules, regulations, or ordinances that would ban the installation or use of fossil fuel-powered kitchen appliances, such as natural gas ovens or stoves, in both residential and commercial settings. The legislation specifies that these appliances must comply with all relevant federal and State regulations in effect at the time the law takes effect.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that it does not interfere with the ability of governmental entities or private organizations to create programs that incentivize the voluntary adoption of electric kitchen appliances. This means while the use of fossil fuel-powered appliances cannot be prohibited, there is still room for promoting electric alternatives through voluntary measures. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
