New Jersey has launched a yearlong process to evaluate the effectiveness of its solar net-metering system and generate possible alternatives.

New Jersey’s Board of Public Utilities released an update to its proposed Storage Incentive Program that changes how the subsidies for utility-scale projects are determined as the state shoots for 2,000 MW of total capacity by 2030.

New Jersey approved a three-year pilot program to create 200 MW of dual-use solar capacity that puts solar panels on functioning farmland in a precursor to a permanent program.

The New Jersey Board of Public Utilities adopted minimum filing requirements that allow utilities to propose programs to promote the development of medium- and heavy-duty electric vehicle chargers.

The Clean Corridor Project will install 167 medium- and heavy-duty truck charging ports on the New Jersey Turnpike and could help alleviate trucker concerns about range.

States can reap long-term savings by upgrading their onshore grids and coordinating transmission development to serve multiple offshore wind projects, but they’ll also face higher upfront costs, supply chain challenges and ratepayer concerns, speakers at a New Jersey conference said.

FERC Order 1920 eventually may provide a structure for long-term, interregional transmission planning, but its anticipated yearslong implementation could mean states will have to lead in planning nearer-term transmission needs, according to a report from the American Council on Renewable Energy and The Brattle Group.

New Jersey’s offshore wind sector looks to take a key role in the East Coast turbine industry despite the closure of the state’s two most advanced projects.

An unprecedented heat wave that triggered a double-digit hike in residential use in New Jersey is being blamed for dramatic spikes in customer electricity rates over the summer.

With data centers, electric vehicles and population growth, electricity demand in New Jersey could soar to 15,000 GWh in the coming years, state officials said at a public hearing on a new plan for connecting offshore wind projects to the grid.
