 2 the "accelerate solar for affordable power (ASAP) act".

 4 increasing distributed solar energy capacity and lowering intercon-
 5 nection costs are essential for achieving the state's affordability,
 6 economic development, and environmental goals. It is the intent of the
 7 legislature to amend the climate leadership and community protection act
 8 to set a new target for distributed solar energy capacity and direct the
 9 public service commission to advance reforms to the utility intercon-
 10 nection process to ensure timely and cost-effective integration of new
 11 distributed energy resources, such as solar and energy storage systems,
 12 into the electric distribution system.
 13 § 3. Paragraph e of subdivision 13 of section 75-0103 of the environ-
 14 mental conservation law, as added by chapter 106 of the laws of 2019, is
 15 amended to read as follows:
 16 e. Measures to achieve [six] twenty gigawatts of distributed solar
 17 energy capacity installed in the state by two thousand [twenty-five]
