New Jersey cannot and will not accept a system that puts profits for out-of-state generators ahead of affordability for our residents. Our clean energy goals have always been rooted in lowering costs, increasing reliability, and building energy right here at home. But those efforts have been consistently undermined by the regional grid operator, PJM Interconnection, which has stalled critical projects that would create more energy here in New Jersey.
