JCP&L installing automated devices to help reduce duration of power outages
Jersey Central Power & Light is coming under scrutiny from state regulators once again, this time to assess the transactions between the state’s second-largest electric utility’s affiliates and its parent, FirstEnergy Corp.
The New Jersey Board of Public Utilities Wednesday hired a consultant to conduct a comprehensive audit of JCP&L, including a detailed examination of its management operations, by the Liberty Consulting Group. The $1.47 million to be paid to the consultant was the highest of the six proposals received.
