PSE&G Reaches Preliminary Agreement with New Jersey BPU for Solar Investments
LCG, May 1, 2013--Public Service Electric & Gas (PSE&G) announced yesterday that it reached a preliminary agreement with New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU) to invest up to $446 million in solar projects over three years.
The settlement for solar power investments requires full board approval, and a decision is expected by the end of May. The New Jersey Division of Rate Counsel stated it will oppose the agreement based upon its belief that there are inadequate safeguards to limit utility spending and that the 10-percent return PSE&G would receive is too high.
Under the agreement, PSE&G would spend $247 million on 42 MW of solar generating capacity located on brownfield sites (including landfills), plus 3 MW of smaller projects. In addition, PSE&G would invest up to $199 million on 97.5 MW of new solar generation via a loan system.
In addition to providing renewable power, the investment to develop solar power is also said to be a means to improve reliability in the wake of Hurricane Sandy.
