The bill proposes an appropriation of $100,000 from the general fund to the Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department for the fiscal year 2026. The allocated funds are intended to create a link on the department's website that will direct users to the New Mexico Department of Justice's webpage. This webpage will display consumer complaints filed against rooftop solar panel installers and provide guidance for consumers on how to file their own complaints.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that any unexpended or unencumbered balance of the appropriation remaining at the end of fiscal year 2026 will revert back to the general fund. This measure aims to enhance consumer protection and transparency regarding rooftop solar panel installations by making complaint information more accessible to the public.
