A more than 40% decline in New Jersey solar installation capacity from 2023 to 2024 has added to the debate over how to retool the state’s net-metering system to help advance the solar sector.

The New Jersey Board of Public Utilities approved eight solar projects in its second solicitation for grid-scale projects, nine months after declining to support any bids in the first solicitation due to cost. 

New Jersey’s Board of Public Utilities earlier this month denied requests by 15 solar developers seeking to extend the completion deadlines for 37 projects.

A New Jersey bill designed to help solar developers who say that delays are threatening the viability of projects has raised concerns about ratepayers'costs

New Jersey's proposal to award solar RECs through annual procurements with incentives for projects incorporating storage won initial support from stakeholders.

A healthy project pipeline notwithstanding, New Jersey has dropped in solar industry rankings for annual new capacity, from No. 9 in 2019 to 20th in 2021.

In its final meeting of 2021, the New Jersey BPU moved ahead with actions to put more EV chargers in minority and low-income communities.

Solar advocates question whether developers will be willing to go through a complicated application process without knowing the value of incentives.

D.C.'s ambitious clean energy target — 100% by 2032 — has created a market for solar companies and utility bill savings for the city's low-income residents.

New Jersey’s Board of Public Utilities hopes to double the state’s solar capacity in five years even as it cuts some subsidies.
