The state’s gas and electric utilities are collectively gearing up to spend at least $1.6 billion over the next three years to spur customers to reduce energy use, an investment aimed at driving down the cost of utility bills.
The investments were spurred largely by the 2018 Clean Energy Act, a wide-ranging law that sought to lay out what needs to be done to achieve the goal of the administration of Gov. Phil Murphy for 100% clean energy in New Jersey by mid-century.

PSE&G is helping to put New Jersey on the road to clean-running electric vehicles.
The state’s largest utility received approval from the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities to invest $166 million in electric vehicle charging over an expected six years.
