The Colonial Pipeline shutdown and gas shortages in some parts of the country may have left some motorists thinking that now’s a good time to switch to electric vehicles. New Jersey state officials certainly thinks so – though not necessarily for that reason.

The agreement includes the 467-megawatt-dc Solar Source portfolio of 25 facilities in various states and related assets and liabilities. The sale is part of PSEG's Strategic Alternatives process to explore options for PSEG Power's non-nuclear generating fleet which, in addition to Solar Source, includes more than 6,750 megawatts of fossil generation.

The projects are part of the Camden-based utility's multimillion-dollar initiative to accelerate the renewal of water infrastructure that has reached the end of its useful life in more than 100 communities across the state.

Under the resolutions, three sites - Hope Creek, and Salem 1 and 2 - are getting a combined $300 million in annual subsidies over three years, totaling $900 million.

The Asbury Park-based company said that 51% of the electricity produced from sites in Teterboro and Pennsauken will be sold to low- and moderate-income households.

The goals laid out in a letter to the president follow a suite of similar efforts by New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts and Connecticut to phase in zero-emissions vehicles.

Once completed, the Camden County facility at the Paulsboro Marine Terminal will produce steel components known as monopiles, which hoist up the structure of the turbine.

Consumers can send in all empty plastic tubes from the frozen treats to to be recycled for free using a prepaid shipping label.

“From creating jobs and strengthening the economy to investing in infrastructure and bringing gigawatts of renewable energy to our coast, offshore wind is critical to New Jersey’s future,” PSEG President and CEO Ralph Izzo said.

Stevens Institute of Technology will source 100% of its electricity directly from a local renewable energy source beginning this fall. But it's not alone, several colleges and universities in New Jersey - like Rider, Stockton and William Paterson Universities - rely on renewable energy for some portion of their campus power.
