Wendy Gordon5/1/2025 4:58:25 PMI am writing to strongly encourage you to support the various recommendations set out in the 2024 Energy Master Plan. We are running out of time to do something about climate change, fast! This will involve a multi-dimensional approach: ~ offshore wind farms (some of which were just delayed, again). These are extra important for providing energy when solar panels are not capturing the sun. Large banks of batteries to store the extra output will be needed. The arguments that “I don’t want to see wind turbines in the ocean” and “turbines kill ocean wildlife” do not hold water to me. Do you protest the building of strip malls and big, ugly business buildings? Also, it has been proven that large ocean wildlife (whales, dolphins) have been killed by large boat propellers, not wind turbine installations. ~ smaller wind turbines on residences and businesses will need to be allowed by passing local ordinances supporting them. Rebates and incentives should be encouraged. ~ solar panels on homes, businesses, over parking lots and in fields. We have already been encouraging this form of renewables for years. Rebates and incentives should be encouraged for the panels, as well as for storage batteries. ~ heat pumps, geothermal installations. Ditto above – rebates and incentives. Require all new construction to be energy efficient and utilize these alternative heat and cooling systems. Make sure that these requirements are CHEAPER than installation of fossil fuel systems. Offer incentives to make existing buildings more energy efficient. ~ transportation. This is a big one. Initially, emphasis needs to be placed on getting an extensive network of charging stations set up for both cars and trucks. People will not comfortably buy a 100% battery vehicle until the “range anxiety” is addressed. In the meantime, also encourage rebates and incentives to purchase the vehicles (so that they are the same price as gas/diesel vehicles, or cheaper) as well as for home charging stations. We need to move fast on the Clean Trucks Rule – they are a large portion of the transportation industry emissions. I am not telling you anything here that you don’t already know. I believe the key to getting this done is MAKE IT AS CHEAP OR CHEAPER THAN THE SYSTEMS WE HAVE IN PLACE NOW. That is the only way the public and businesses will get behind this. As for the argument that pollution crosses state lines and why should NJ spend all this time and energy? Be a leader, be an example, be an advocate. It’s not about “me”, it’s about “we”.

Dr. Michael Skelly, Sr. 5/1/2025 4:30:18 PMThe Unitarian Universalist FaithAction NJ (UU FaithAction), on behalf of nearly 20 New Jersey member Congregations, located in 16 Counties of New Jersey, submits the following comments on the 2024 Energy Master Plan. We are committed to the interconnectedness of all life, social justice, and the well-being of future generations. Our ethical and moral imperatives are driving our concern for climate change and environmental justice and our active participation throughout this process. UU FaithAction has followed and participated in the public comment process at almost every phase. We incorporate by reference our previous oral, written testimony and comments and reaffirm that we wish for them to be considered and responded to in this proceeding. We emphasize the two master strategies to be followed throughout this Energy Master Plan is (1) deep and comprehensive cuts in energy use; and (2) exclusively producing energy from renewable and sustainable energy sources such as offshore wind, and solar. The seven overarching strategies developed to guide the 2019 and 2024 Energy Master plan provide many examples and goals worth pursuing as a start. The 7 overarching strategies developed to guide the 2019 and 2024 Energy Master plan include: • Strategy 1: Reduce Energy Consumption and Emissions from the Transportation Sector • Strategy 2: Accelerate Deployment of Renewable Energy and Distributed Energy Resources • Strategy 3: Maximize Energy Efficiency and Conservation and Reduce Peak Demand • Strategy 4: Reduce Energy Consumption and Emissions from the Building Sector • Strategy 5: Decarbonize and Modernize New Jersey’s Energy System • Strategy 6: Support Community Energy Planning and Action with an Emphasis on Encouraging and Supporting Participation by Low- and Moderate-Income and Environmental Justice Communities • Strategy 7: Expand the Clean Energy Innovation Economy The Energy Master Plan must be viewed with greater urgency and an overarching NJ-based self-reliance approach. We must do so due to (a) the substantial increase in available scientific information; (b) recent flooding/ wildfires/ etc. experiences in NJ and elsewhere; (c) dramatic shifts in US national government policy and budgets; and (d) the rising pricing and strangling of the queue for solar and wind by the industry version of OPEC, known as PJM. We urge the Board to set goals, plan for, and implement much deeper and wider actions to achieve our many goals in a shorter timeframe. Thank you for this opportunity; we hope these comments are useful to New Jersey in its EMP revision process and look forward to reviewing a draft Energy Master Plan revision when they are made available.

Box 350 Trenton, NJ 08625-0350 Email: board.secretary@bpu.nj.gov In the Matter of Docket No. QO24020126 – 2024 Energy Master Plan Jersey Renews wishes to thank the Board of Public Utilities (BPU) for the opportunity to comment on the proposed Energy Master Plan (EMP). Jersey Renews is a coalition of more than 70 union labor, community, and environmental organizations whose purpose is to find unified solutions that advance clean energy and related industries. The EMP is an expansive policy document that will have significant impacts on various sectors moving forward. Over the past six months, Jersey Renews has been working with dozens of our partners in labor, community, and environmental organizations, which are listed in the attached document, to develop policy recommendations across many of these same domains, including clean energy production, vehicle electrification, workforce development, and grid modernization. Attached as comments are a series of policy briefs that we believe should help guide the BPU when working to finalize the EMP. While not all recommendations in the policy platform can be completed unilaterally by the BPU, we believe that it provides a comprehensive vision for a clean energy future and economy moving forward. We want to stress that the BPU should aim to develop an EMP that, like the policy briefs, reflects the unified interests of union labor, community organizations, and environmental groups. Accordingly, any final plan should highlight how we can produce more clean, renewable energy in state, move to a functional, electrified transit system, and modernize our electric grid, all while creating good paying jobs. While we understand the desire to be aspirational, the EMP should also be rooted in practical policies that will improve the lives of New Jersey’s residents through cleaner air, less overall pollution, and a robust economy. Jersey Renews was founded on the idea that there can be consensus, often common sense, policy solutions that bring together often disparate interests in the energy space. We still believe in this approach and encourage the BPU to also consider it as you move forward towards adoption. Thank you again for the opportunity to comment and we are happy to answer any questions or meet with the Board in order to further discuss any of the proposed policies. Jersey Renews Policy Platform

Raymond Cantor5/1/2025 12:05:41 PMOn behalf of the New Jersey Business & Industry Association, the state’s largest association representing the job creators in New Jersey, we are submitting the following comments on the planned update of the Energy Master Plan. This is a pivotal time for energy planning in our state. We are about to transition to a new administration at the state level, and we are seeing a dramatic shift in energy policies at the national level. Recent events at the capacity auction at PJM will result in electricity rate increases of up to 20%. The offshore wind industry, touted by the Murphy administration as the key to a carbon-free energy transition, is on hold for the foreseeable future, if not longer. Clean energy policies in Europe have led to the deindustrialization of major economies while not significantly impacting global carbon emissions, much less the climate. Spain, Portugal, and parts of France are currently suffering through a major blackout due to an imbalance in their grid, likely caused or exacerbated by high penetration of intermittent power sources. What we decide on energy policy for New Jersey over the next few years will have significant impacts on our economic growth, affordability, and our ability to maintain a reliable electrical grid system. We need to be pragmatic, cautious, and clear-eyed. We need to make the tough, but right decisions. Toward that end, NJBIA incorporates by reference our earlier submissions on the current EMP concerning the essential nature of having a reliable and affordable supply of energy. We reemphasize that our current energy system was built up over a 100-year period and has been dependent largely on the use of fossil fuels. This energy system has powered our modern society and enhanced the lives of our citizens. It will not and cannot be transformed over the next decade, at least not without severe negative consequences. We support efforts to transition our economy to less carbon intensive sources of energy, so long as we do so in a measured and pragmatic manner. NJBIA offers the following 12 policies that we believe should be incorporated into an updated energy master plan. 1. Prioritize reliability and affordability – Since its inception, the Board of Public Utilities, and its predecessors, have had the key mission of promoting reliable and affordable energy. Reliability and affordability have been the guiderails of our energy policy for well over a century and they have served us well, allowing for the growth of a robust economy and an increasing quality of life. However, with the promotion of “green” policies intended to rapidly reduce the carbon emissions from the energy sector, we have strayed from the basics of sound energy policy. We have abandoned real concerns of affordability in favor of concerns of inaction. We have favored subsidies for some, at the expense of others, including the business community. Pseudo and highly manipulated science, such as the social cost of carbon, should not be used as a substitute for actual measurable cost benefit data. We have neglected the realities of the grid and energy supply in favor of accelerated actions. We need to decelerate the energy transition so that we can first ensure reliability and affordability. “No regret” policies should be implemented first. More disruptive policies should only be pursued when they can be assured of working and being cost effective. 2. Ease or eliminate artificial deadlines – Many of the costly and ineffective energy policies we have pursued are the result of trying to meet artificially imposed deadlines to reduce carbon emissions. While we support aspirational goals and setting targets, these targets should not drive policies if they negatively impact reliability and affordability. We should first focus on “no regrets” policies before undertaking disruptive energy shifts. 3. Repeal or delay DEP standards for natural gas power plants – In January 2023, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection adopted regulations on carbon emissions from natural gas electric generation facilities. The regulations were to be implemented in three phases with increasing levels of stringency. The intent was to force the closure of older, more polluting facilities, to compel the upgrade of others, and to ensure that new facilities meet very restrictive standards. Given the recent lack of in-state and grid-wide capacity that has led to substantial rate increases, we need to reconsider the efficacy of these rules. While the rules do contain an exemption for facilities subject to a PJM “must run” order, this exemption does not adequately prevent the closure of facilities needed for grid reliability and affordability. NJBIA recommends that these rules be either repealed or delayed until such a time that the PJM can certify that we are no longer in a resource deficit. 4. Encourage new or expanded natural gas electric generation – Natural gas supplies over half of the electricity generated in New Jersey. The switch from coal to natural gas over the last 15 years has led to a dramatic reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from our electric generation sector allowing New Jersey to meet its 2020 GHG reduction goals. The switch to natural gas has also reduced costs for consumers and ushered in an increase in manufacturing, which is dependent on lower energy costs. As New Jersey seeks to increase its electric generation capacity it should first look toward natural gas. A natural gas power plant can be constructed in about two years. While permitting issues can more than double this timeframe, permit reform, at the local, state, and PJM levels can significantly reduce the span it should take to get all regulatory approvals. Further, we can more easily bring this capacity online if we focus first on locations with existing facilities or where electric generation facilities had previously existed. Expansions of existing facilities will need fewer permits than new facilities. Where possible, closed facilities should be brought back online. Locations where facilities previously existed should be considered as sites for new facilities. Using existing or previous sites allows for the use of existing transmission lines and equipment thus saving time and money and making permitting reviews easier. The state and PJM should implement policies and regulations to expedite these expansions, repowering, and reconstructed natural gas facilities. In doing so, we must send clear market signals that these facilities will be prioritized and will be allowed to operate for their useful life so that we can attract the necessary capital for their construction and continued operation. 5. Facilitate solar and battery/don’t eliminate wind – Solar power, supplemented with batteries, should continue to be a significant part of our energy strategy. As with natural gas facilities, permit reform should be implemented to expeditiously allow the connection of grid scale solar and battery facilities. NJBIA supports the growth of this industry in the state, not through the purchase of credits from out-of-state projects. This will create both jobs in New Jersey and also ensure that we have sufficient generation in our state where it is needed. While offshore wind is currently stalled due to a number of factors, it should not be abandoned as a potential energy source in the future. As with all energy sources, bringing offshore wind online should be done only if it can be accomplished affordably and while maintaining grid reliability. 6. Repeal EV mandates – While well intended to reduce carbon emissions from the transportation sector, the adoption of ACC II and ACT will negatively impact consumers and the economy. Further, it has become obvious that we cannot meet the escalating adoption requirements contained in these regulations. Consumers have also spoken and decided that they will not be forced to buy a product they don’t want in the mandated time frames. NJBIA supports the growth of the EV market, both for passenger vehicles and heavy-duty trucks. However, the adoption of this technology needs to be done by market forces, not government dictate. We are already seeing EV sales for new passenger vehicles approach the 12% range and theycontinue to increase, although not nearly at the pace required by the regulatory EV mandates. We should continue with modest incentives for EV usage and promote the use of hybrids as well as BEVs. We must also ensure that we have the transmission and distribution infrastructure in place to accommodate an increase in EV vehicles as well as the necessary electric generation. 7. Study grid reliability with an increasing supply of intermittent power – Often neglected from any policy consideration of incorporating an increasing supply of intermittent power into the grid is how this will impact grid reliability. Modern, large, electrical grids require that it be continually, and precisely balanced. Even small fluctuations can have disruptive effects. Intermittent sources of power operate on a different frequency than fossil or nuclear base load power sources. They provide less necessary inertia in the system, making them more vulnerable to disruptions and more difficult to bring back online should a failure occur. A valuable lesson was learned when all of Spain and Portugal, and parts of France, recently suffered a sudden and catastrophic failure of its grid. All of Europe was close to failing as well. With a lack of firm generation power, this part of Europe has struggled to return electric power to a majority of the impacted areas. We cannot continue to ignore the engineering demands of the grid by continually adding intermittent sources of power without regard for reliability. Batteries will not suffice for this balancing purpose. NJBIA is calling for a holistic study of the grid’s ability to handle more intermittent sources of power. We need to understand how to avoid catastrophic failures, and the cost that would be incurred to ensure reliability. We need to know how many intermittent sources of power the grid can withstand and continue to be reliable. 8. Plan grid upgrades to coincide with increases of demand and supply – For the past seven years, we have pursued carbon reduction policies such as the promotion of renewable energy over fossil fuel-based generation, and the electrification of our building and transportation sectors. We have been creating demand at the same time we have been limiting supply. The resulting capacity shortage and rising prices were easy to predict. Before we add more intermittent sources of power, we need to make sure that the grid is equipped to handle it. This includes not only concerns of grid stability, but also basic factors such as ensuring we have the equipment and personnel to make the connections. Similarly, with electrification policies, we cannot put the cart before the horse. While we believe that the market will adequately ensure that there are sufficient charging stations for the natural growth of the EV market, forced adoption of EVs will be disruptive and cannot be handled by the grid or the available resources. We cannot push policies on either electrification or renewables until we have the infrastructure in place, or planned to be in place, to handle the actual needs those policies will incur. Hoping it will all work out is not a plan. 9. Reform PJM capacity auction and connection approvals – While we believe that the current resource shortage and price increases are best explained by policy choices, there is little doubt that the PJM was ill-prepared to effectively handle those policies. Just as it was obvious to us and others in the business community that the EMP policies would result in supply deficits and increased costs, it must also have been obvious to PJM. State policies promoting smaller, intermittent sources of power and discouraging large, natural gas facilities have led to a queue backlog of projects that the existing PJM connection process was not equipped to handle. Use of the capacity market to establish prices to encourage increased generation did not adequately take into account state and federal policies that had the opposite effect, especially for firm capacity. The capacity caps were not set appropriately, allowing for rates significantly higher than what was necessary to promote new resources. In short, the PJM failed to account for changing policy and market conditions allowing for a resource capacity shortage and unnecessarily high rates. While we attribute most of the problems to state and federal energy policies, PJM should have anticipated these results and should have taken action sooner to avoid the impacts. 10. Plan for long-term increase of nuclear power – Nuclear power still provides the largest source of carbon-free electric generation in the state. NJBIA believes nuclear energy needs to be a larger share of our future. The existing EMP, while it assumes the continued operation of our existing nuclear fleet, contains no provision for new facilities. We recognize that there are many factors behind the stagnation of our nuclear power industry in this country, including political and economic. We believe that these problems can be resolved by better, more efficient regulations at the federal level and support at the state level. Small modular reactors should also be a part of our energy future, either for grid supply and reliability or to power major energy consumption such as AI data centers. Given the long time to plan for and construct a nuclear power plant, efforts should be undertaken now, at both the state and federal level, to promote this industry. We note that Virginia just signed a contract to construct the nation’s first commercial fusion reactor. A similar project is already being planned in New Jersey as a test prototype. We should be encouraging these developments. 11. Alternative fuels – There are many energy sources, currently on the market or for which the technology exists, that can immediately lower carbon emissions. However, our policies to date have focused on zero emissions rather than substantial reductions. For example, compressed natural gas can be used to replace diesel in trucks and lower emissions. However, by adopting ACT, the state’s policy is for 100% battery- powered electric vehicles and not on combustion engines that run cleaner. BEVs have been mandated over hybrids, despite the consumer confidence in the latter. Renewable natural gas and hydrogen can be fed into natural gas lines to lower the carbon intensity of buildings. These are all easy, no-regret policies that move us closer to our decarbonization goals. Despite advocacy promotion, there is no magic in “net zero.” We should be moving in that direction as an aspirational goal, not as a mandated policy. 12. Cost – Last but not least is the issue of cost. While we stated that affordability needed to be a guardrail of our energy policies, we do recognize that the development of new sources of power and grid upgrades will have an added cost that must be borne. Policies that have been promoted in the past several years to electrify the transportation and building sectors also have a cost. We need to be transparent about these costs and who will pay for them. We need to account for all costs of compliance, not just a segment. To date, the EMP has failed to provide a holistic explanation of how much each of these policies will cost the ratepayers, taxpayers, and consumers. It is only through transparent policies that the public can truly understand the impacts of government actions and decide if they are correct or not. Given the enormous economic and social impacts, transparency is essential. Public acceptance is essential. Thank you again for this opportunity to comment.

Raymond Bukowski5/1/2025 11:34:05 AMDear Secretary Lewis: Thank you for the opportunity to submit comments as part of the State’s efforts to update the 2019 New Jersey Energy Master Plan. New Jersey Resources Corporation (NJR) is a diversified energy infrastructure company headquartered in Wall Township. Our largest subsidiary, New Jersey Natural Gas serves approximately 582,000 customers mainly across Monmouth, Ocean and Morris counties. Our renewable energy company NJR Clean Energy Ventures is one of the State’s largest owner-operators of commercial solar and has played a critical role in innovative renewable energy projects in New Jersey. NJR Home Services provides a myriad of retail energy services to home and business owners, and our other subsidiaries are involved in continent-wide energy trading, bulk storage and midstream infrastructure operations. This diverse portfolio enables a deep understanding of the complex energy issues confronting New Jersey, and informs our strategy to provide reliable, safe affordable and cleaner energy. NJR recognizes climate change is an imperative challenge, Our business is committed to reducing emissions and is supportive of New Jersey’s own emission reduction goals – without compromising reliability and affordability for the state’s ratepayers. As New Jersey works toward meeting emission reduction goals, the EMP must consider and balance reliability and affordability for New Jersey ratepayers in a more realistic manner that reflects the current cost pressures faced by residents. Growing power demand, coupled with mounting supply issues, are compounding challenges the state will be facing for the foreseeable future. Pursuing an all the above energy solutions strategy can help better insulate these cost pressures while also protecting customer choice and affordability. Updates to the EMP must be transparent about the cost implications for pursuing narrow energy strategies that would result in higher expenses, less choice and more burdens on consumers. NJR would like to reemphasize our previously submitted comments, which are attached, that the EMP must prioritize customer affordability and cost impacts, energy availability and reliability, and cost-effective solutions toward long-term emission reduction goals. Given these considerations, NJR is supportive of public policy and an Energy Master Plan that: • Embraces and supports innovative, cost-effective emission reduction solutions on both the gas and electric systems, including both pipeline and non-pipeline solutions, to help achieve 2050 greenhouse gas emission reduction goals; • Prioritizes energy system and service reliability for all customers as a primary policy objective over both the near- and long-term; • Recognizes that reducing economy-wide emissions while reliably meeting increasing energy demand will require the State to leverage its diverse, existing energy infrastructure; • Factors in a full and robust accounting of both the cost and feasibility of large-scale electric system transmission and delivery requirements in its Integrated Energy Plan (IEP) scenarios; • Preserves customer choice, with the recognition that navigating customer impacts and market adoption realities, minimizing ratepayer costs, and mitigating disruptions in homes and businesses are priorities that must be handled with thoroughness, broad stakeholder input, and a sophisticated and unbiased view of the facts; • Strengthens and deepens energy efficiency measures for both gas and electric appliances to support emission reduction goals; • Prioritizes generating capacity from in-state sources, including accelerated deployment of solar generation, demand response and distributed energy resources – a critical priority with the state being behind pace on solar and battery storage deployment, and with the serious challenges faced by off-shore wind projects in New Jersey. NJR continues to stand ready as a partner in New Jersey’s energy journey and in reaching the State’s 2050 emission reduction goals. We thank you for the opportunity to comment on this process.

Betsy Longendorfer5/1/2025 10:38:05 AMNJ is the most densely populated state, and so it has pollution problems to match. It is also a coastal state and will be dramatically affected by sea level rise, so it is critical that we devote as much effort as possible to developing clean energy. Offshore wind power could be a major contributor to clean energy here in NJ, and it can be built relatively quickly. It would make us less dependent on neighboring states that also ship their air pollution to us, along with their energy. We would also be less dependent on fossil fuel prices or other federal policies that come and go. I saw that your EMP presentation included 3 scenarios for getting to the desired result by 2050. The Demand Response scenario seems like it needs to be aggressively pursued, along with another strategy. It has the advantage of being less controversial by saving everyone money, no matter what fuel they are using. And of course, pursuing the goal of high electrification in the building and transportation centers is extremely important. Please do all you can to promote clean energy for NJ.

No. QO24020126 2024 New Jersey Energy Master Plan Dear Secretary Golden: The New Jersey State Chamber of Commerce (“State Chamber”) is pleased to submit these comments and information in response to the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (“NJBPU”) Request for Information (“RFI”) regarding the Board’s inquiry on the 2024 update to the New Jersey Energy Master Plan (“EMP”). Since 1911, the New Jersey State Chamber of Commerce (“State Chamber”) has been recognized as the most respected, prestigious, bi-partisan and well-connected business association in New Jersey. With a broad-based membership ranging from the Fortune 500 companies to small proprietorships, representing every corner of the state and every industry, our members provide jobs for over a million people in New Jersey. We continue to work toward streamlining the regulatory process while striving to maintain the economic vitality of our members and the quality of life that makes New Jersey unique. Energy is the lifeblood of the economy. Reliable, safe, reasonably-priced and environmentally sound energy supply is essential for New Jersey’s economic progress and future. The State Chamber supports a balanced approach toward achieving the EMP goals that doesn’t depend or rely on one method, one technology, one fuel source, or overburden one segment of the economy or group of energy consumers. The energy sector plays a foundational role in shaping the broader economy by powering industries, transportation, and households. Reliable power production, whether from fossil fuels, nuclear, or renewables like solar and wind are essential for economic stability and growth. Energy availability influences everything from the cost of goods to the competitiveness of businesses, as disruptions or soaring prices can stifle productivity and deter investment. Strategic energy planning, including infrastructure development and diversification of energy sources, ensures long-term economic resilience and security. Planning within the energy sector often involves significant public and private investment, which has multiplier effects across the economy. Large-scale energy projects, such as the construction of power plants, grid upgrades, or renewable installations, require extensive capital and coordination, spurring demand in sectors like manufacturing, engineering, and construction. Energy policy decisions also impact inflation and trade balances, as countries dependent on energy imports are vulnerable to global price swings, whereas energy-producing nations can leverage exports for economic leverage. At the local level, energy development can be a catalyst for job creation and community revitalization. For example, rural areas often benefit from renewable energy projects like wind farms or solar installations, which generate employment during both construction and ongoing operations. Local economies gain from increased tax revenues, land leases, and supporting service industries. However, the transition from fossil fuels to renewables also presents challenges for communities historically reliant on coal or oil, requiring thoughtful planning, retraining programs, and investment to ensure an equitable economic shift. The reliability and resilience of our energy, along with our transportation systems, are key to our businesses and their operations in the State. We support continued efforts in strengthening, modernizing and updating our aging power grid. We recognize the need for such investments and like any other long-term solution, the management and financing of such investments require thoughtful but structured, more predictable deliberation. The New Jersey business community – both our industrial and commercial members – have worked diligently over the past several decades to make the necessary investments in both state-of-the-art air pollution control equipment and technology and energy efficiency. Control technologies such as selective catalytic reduction, scrubbers, carbon injection and baghouses have been installed on power plants and other industries resulting in a reduction in energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. The State Chamber will take the opportunity to highlight some of the specific energy sectors our organization believes must be “on the table” as the State of New Jersey prepares for the energy needs of the business community and residents in the outlying years: GRID INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS The State Chamber recognizes that electric transmission resources are essential to maintain the reliability, efficiency, and safety of the electric system. Transmission additions and upgrades are also elements of a balanced approach to meeting the needs of energy consumers. The ability to move power throughout the State and the region and to resolve congestion on the system that affects reliability and increases costs remains an important goal. New transmission construction also is an economic driver in its own right that will create jobs directly and through associated economic activity. Concerns about the current infrastructure grid have become front-and-center as a result of the push to electrify transportation and the building heating. The NJBPU knows all to well that as the use of electric cars have expanded, the need to have electricity transmitted and distributed to a wider range of locations in the state has increased substantially. Convenience store chains have expanded the construction of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, in some cases having over a dozen charging stations in one location. While the expansion of EVs is a good thing for our environment, it has been apparent that the local grids have become severely stressed to capacity requiring upgrades. The expansion of solar generation in New Jersey, particularly grid-supply solar projects, and the Governor’s agenda to expand more community solar projects, has caused interconnection delays in certain areas of the state. While there appear to be several causes to this problem, the lack of capacity along the transmission grid is one of these causes. In order to maintain grid reliability and increase grid capacity, New Jersey’s utilities, especially their electric distribution companies (EDCs), should continue making substantial investments in modernizing their grids to support this increased deployment and ensure the continued safe and reliable operation of their systems. The State Chamber encourages the BPU to work closely with the State’s utilities and other stakeholders to fully utilize the accelerated recovery mechanism for infrastructure investments that are in place, and identify alternative regulatory mechanisms, to incentivize the substantial investment in the utilities’ systems that will be necessary to meet the State’s clean energy goals. Additionally, we recognize the importance of modernizing the overall utility infrastructure, including upgrading and replacing leaking gas pipelines. NATURAL GAS In this time of transition to a reduced carbon footprint, New Jersey must continue to cultivate a natural-gas friendly environment. Natural gas is economically efficient and is a clean, safe, and reliable source of energy. Our natural gas infrastructure is vital for a strong economy and the reliability of the state’s power grid. Our utilities have made significant investments in improving old pipes to reduce the fugitive emission of natural gas, and are anxious to invest capital to enhance the infrastructure and reliability. That needs to be supported as a vital step towards achieving the goals of the EMP. When it comes to affordability, natural gas is a proven reliable fuel source that can actually lower costs for families and businesses -- it is a proven cost-effective resource that provides fuel diversity. Recognizing the availability of low-cost natural gas and the primacy of gas use in home heating, it would be imprudent to neglect the state’s gas delivery infrastructure. Additionally, natural gas is improving air quality in our state. Natural gas produces nearly a third less carbon dioxide than coal and almost half less than oil when burned. Natural gas also emits little to no sulfur and runs more efficiently than other fuels. In that regard, perhaps one of the biggest investments that both the private sector and our natural gas utilities have undertaken is the development of renewable natural gas (RNG). We have seen the recent development of two primary sources of RNG: food waste, and landfill gas. Regarding food waste, in 2020, Governor Murphy signed A-2371 requiring large food generators to source separate and recycle food waste. There has been significant development of RNG facilities that utilize food waste to manufacture clean, pipeline grade RNG. While we still await regulations implementing this law, we have seen facilities developed to develop food waste-to-RNG production. Similarly, the methane gases that result from decomposing waste in landfills has now become a source of pipeline grade RNG; there have been several projects that have been developed or are in the preliminary stages of development. In each case, the RNG reduces New Jersey’s carbon footprint and provides much needed natural gas. The State Chamber supports a green economy and reducing emissions. We believe the natural gas system can do that through continued investment in infrastructure, as well as investing in RNG and hydrogen. These alternative, low-to-zero carbon fuels will reduce emissions and will create jobs and an energy production industry in the state that doesn’t currently exist. The EMP should encourage the development of clean fuels in New Jersey. The State Chamber supports the State’s desire to achieve a clean energy future but cautions against policies that stand to harm the New Jersey economy without tangible environmental benefits. In particular, the State Chamber recommends that the State avoid pursuing widespread electrification to the exclusion of natural gas service. Nearly 75% of New Jerseyans rely on natural gas, and it represents a source of safe, affordable, and reliable energy for our businesses. Ratepayers, including businesses, have invested billions in the gas system over many decades, and this infrastructure can help to decarbonize buildings, and our economy by carrying clean fuels like renewable natural gas and hydrogen. Furthermore, unlike traditional natural gas, these clean fuels can (and already are) being produced here within the State, creating jobs and contributing to State’s economy. Calls to abandon this reliable energy source in favor of electric should be rejected. At present, our electric grid remains heavily reliant on carbon-emitting power generation, and requires significant transmission and distribution upgrades to better accommodate existing demand, not to mention the expected growth in electric demand owing to EV deployment and data center development. As power plants in New Jersey have shut down, the fact of the matter is that the State has now become more dependent on out-of-state generation, notably generation in Pennsylvania. The fact that Pennsylvania has rejected participation in the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) means that Pennsylvania power plants have a distinct price advantage over New Jersey power plants. As the Board is well aware, these power plants to the west still utilize coal as well as less controlled technologies. In contrast, while New Jersey’s fleet is cleaner, it has to compete with these out-of-state and dirtier power sources. Continued development of natural gas in New Jersey, particular in the areas of RNG and hydrogen, allow us to continue the safe and reliable provision of heat until the region, and indeed the United States, ultimately is able to convert to cleaner fuels. Additionally, given the current concern about electric rates, ensuring that gas is available for both electric production as well as service for the end use for heating, cooking, and commercial/industrial applications is more important now than ever. Working together, the electric and gas systems can continue to supply our State’s businesses with the energy they need, while they continue to improve in a way that reduces emissions. NUCLEAR Nuclear energy has been a powering source for the United States for over 60 years. Nuclear energy protects air quality by producing massive amounts of emission free, and in particular carbon-free electricity. Nuclear energy continues to generate energy when the wind isn’t blowing and the sun isn’t shining. New Jersey needs to support and continue to invest in our operating nuclear generating stations in Salem County (Salem and Hope Creek Generating Stations). SMALL MODULAR REACTORS (SMR) The emerging SMR market has gained momentum in recent years. SMRs are nuclear reactors that are “small” (300 megawatts of electrical power or less), can be largely assembled in a centralized facility, and would be installed in a modular fashion at power generation sites. Their lower initial capital investment, enhanced efficiency, reduced carbon emissions, versatility and scalability make them a valuable addition to the energy mix. Small nuclear reactors should be considered as a potential component in our pursuit of a renewable energy future. SOLAR New Jersey is a leader in the solar industry, ranking eighth for total installed solar capacity nationwide. The State Chamber supports solar incentives like tax exemptions, net metering and the federal solar tax credit. Additionally, the State Chamber supports solar development at sites such as landfills, brownfields, warehouses, and government facilities that provide potential for larger installations, improve economies of scale, and that would return unproductive or underutilized sites to societal use. However, as outlined above, the continued success of New Jersey’s solar industry is predicated upon electric grid infrastructure that can support the expanded development of solar energy. ENERGY EFFICIENCY The State Chamber recognizes the importance of energy efficiency to achieving business and environmental goals. For businesses, using energy more efficiently saves money, reduces operating costs, increases competitiveness, and promotes job retention and creation. The State Chamber would welcome development of additional efficiency programs aimed at commercial and industrial customers. We also encourage State and local governments to lead by example and pursue efforts to reduce energy demand in government buildings. The EMP should remain aligned with the 2021 Clean Energy Act provisions around energy efficiency and continue to prioritize energy efficiency measures for both gas and electric customers and equipment in order to meet emission reduction targets. New Jersey should remain open to new end-use technologies, and support innovative utility energy-efficiency programs on both the gas and electric system, especially hybrid heat, networked geothermal, and demand response. New Jersey's utilities have realistic, achievable strategies to bring cost-effective emissions reductions to our state, including through energy efficiency, low- and zero-carbon fuels, hybrid heat, and the significant potential for carbon capture and other breakthroughs. New Jersey must continue to explore renewable natural gas, green hydrogen, hybrid heat, geothermal heat and wastewater-to-hydrogen projects. HYDROGEN and FUEL CELL TECHNOLOGY As New Jersey companies continue to focus on their decarbonization efforts and make progress toward achieving their emissions reduction commitments, the State should be open to incentivizing industry to transition parts of their operations to incorporate hydrogen and fuel cell technologies. The State Chamber encourages the State to continue their work with and support the research of New Jersey’s academic institutions to pursue making hydrogen and fuel cell technology another viable option to our energy demands. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) Artificial Intelligence (AI) has made significant strides in recent years, revolutionizing human-machine interactions and enabling complex tasks. However, as AI’s capabilities expand, so does its energy consumption. Demand for electricity is going to soar in the coming years, notably from data centers. If New Jersey is going to be a leader in AI, it will need data centers -- which require vast amounts of new sources of electricity. The future of AI hinges on finding sustainable solutions for its energy needs and the State will need to take a proactive approach by supporting more power generation amid growing demand. FISCAL IMPACT With all of these proposals, the State Chamber strongly encourages the NJBPU to analyze and review the cost to implement these projects and the impact – pro or con – to the State’s economy. The NJBPU needs to continue their due diligence process to safeguard the interests of ratepayers, making sure that we avoid any undue economic burdens. The State Chamber appreciates the opportunity to provide input and respectfully requests that our views be given proper consideration. Sincerely, Michael A.

Louise Usechak4/30/2025 10:29:20 PMComment on NJ Energy Master Plan of 2024 Docket # QO24020126 It is critical that we push the PJM to have greater flexibility and incorporate more clean energy sources. The coming rate hike of 17% in Electricity prices is going to do a lot of damage and leave many without the means to have access to the air conditioning that is becoming a necessary element in our lives during heat waves if we are to avoid heat prostration and death in the future.. Without a greater percentage of clean energy in our energy supply, we are unable to meet clean air standards and mitigate the extreme climate change damages that NJ is anticipated to be dealt from polluted air and unmitigated and rising sea levels. Something like 42% of our polluted air problems are due to the transportation sector in this state as we link the Mid-Atlantic states to NY and New England with pipelines and power lines, roadways and more—with lots of trucking. It is essential we look to electrification wherever possible in buildings and in transportation. When looking at cost factors, our energy master plan should also take into consideration the health impacts that now accompany weather patterns and poor air quality from ozone, small particulate matter, and airborne toxins. These are as critical factors to take into account in our Master Plan as any other elements. Unfortunately, they get overlooked and ignored because we, the residents, have to pay directly for these and they don’t get factored into the costs of energy when politicians and regulators look at Energy Master Plans and various cost factors. Our very life expectancy as residents of New Jersey is dependent on the decisions you make with our Energy Master Plan. We need a goal to reach full clean electricity by 2035. This will require careful planning along with incentives. However, we have already reached 1.5 degrees of increased global warming. We can’t keep putting this off and we ultimately will need to use off-shore wind energy to reach our goal. Our coastal areas are now dealing with geological subsidence, as well as sea level rise. We face heavy future dislocations of populations and impacts to densely developed areas which line our coast. We will face loss of tax base, infrastructure and more due to sea level rise and increasingly destructive storm events from climate warming.. The financial and human chaos this will create can only be avoided by careful and farsighted planning now. The Energy Master Plan you approve will greatly determine the residential, political, and financial stability for our residents and our state going forward to 2035. We face real damage and negative impacts from sea level rise and increasingly strong storm events projected for the future even up to 2035. Even more drastic conditions are predicted by 2050. The direction and goals included in this Master Plan will determine whether we will be on the right pathway headed forward or not.  
Brian Lestini4/30/2025 8:19:12 PMComments on the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU) 2024 Energy Master Plan (EMP) Submitted by: Brian Lestini, MD PhD I am a physician and executive who lives and works in New Jersey. The comments provided in this document are solely my own, and are submitted in my personal and private capacity as a citizen. They do not represent that of any company or organization. Recommendation for Aggressive Pursuit of 100% Clean Energy by 2035 • As a physician, business leader, and father, I underscore to BPU the critical urgency and importance of achieving New Jersey's goal of 100% clean energy by 2035. • Every day, New Jerseyans are adversely impacted by the increasing effects of climate change and fossil fuel-associated pollution. • It is with high certainty that we know climate change is happening and is due to the man-made generation of greenhouse gases due to the combustion of carbon-based fossil fuels, supported by over 200,000 scientific articles generated over 4 decades that confirm consensus [1][2]. This high level of evidence is rare, even relative to other areas of science or medicine in which there is considered to be consensus opinion. • It is also certain that the pace of climate change is accelerating, which leaves a very narrow window for us to take steps to mitigate and adapt to further adverse climate-related impacts on human health and economic output. • Furthermore, the health effects of climate change are significant. 2024 was the hottest summer on record, and every future summer will become the hottest ever. Excessive heat currently kills about 12,000 Americans annually, similar to gun homicides [3]. In New Jersey alone, roughly 445 deaths a year are attributable to excess heat, which is estimated to rise to roughly 3,560 per year by the end of the century unless meaningful steps are taken to slow the pace of climate change [4]. • Pollutants generated by burning fossil fuels, such as PM 2.5 particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and a host of other pollutants are able to penetrate deeply into the lungs and bloodstream. These pollutants are now the highest single risk factor for disease globally, more than high blood pressure, smoking, or diabetes [5]. Air pollution leads to roughly 350,000 premature deaths each in the US alone [6], and is strongly associated with many diseases such as heart disease, stroke, asthma, chronic lung disease, adverse pregnancy outcomes, and dementia. • Fortunately, by implementing robust policies and incentives to accelerate the transition to clean energy as recommended in the 2024 updated EMP, we can take meaningful steps in New Jersey to mitigate and adapt to the worst effects of climate change and fossil pollution. • New Jersey also stands to benefit economically, in terms of tens of billions of dollars saved in public health costs, and similar tens of billions generated in economic output and the creation of clean energy jobs. • In addition to committing to the most aggressive electrification scenarios and “no regrets” strategies outlined in the current BPU 2024 EMP, New Jersey must commit to introducing and passing 100% Clean Energy by 2035 legislation without delay, codifying these commitments into law in order to drive public and private investment into our clean energy economy and protect human health. • Crucially to New Jersey’s goals, BPU must take every possible step to ensure that PJM is held accountable for interconnecting the almost 300 GW of backlogged capacity, of which roughly 95% comprises renewables, without delay, and without bias toward prioritization of fossil fuel derived capacity. This should include not only working with PJM directly, but also with other state regulatory bodies, the legislature, and the governor, as needed to ensure the appropriate policies are in place to bring this excess renewable capacity on line as expeditiously as possible. Economic Growth and Potential • The steps taken by our state and at the federal level to grow New Jersey’s clean energy economy have already generated tangible benefits. • Between 2022-2023, clean energy jobs in New Jersey increased by 5%, to roughly 60,000 jobs (not including transmission & distribution), or 42% of the total 143,000 energy jobs in the state. The vast majority of these jobs are in solar and construction/manufacturing [7]. By BPU estimates outlined in the draft EMP, these clean energy jobs are furthermore poised by nearly double under the most aggressive 100% clean energy by 2035 scenarios. • The 5.2 GW of wind electricity awarded (of 11 GW planned) in the first 3 solicitations (of 7 planned) have provided roughly $5 billion in economic benefits to the state [8]. • The New Jersey Wind Port in Lower Alloways Creek, Salem County, woud provide access to 50% of the available offshore wind lease areas along the Atlantic coast, and would provide up to 1,500 local jobs [8][9]. • Expanding the scope and scale of clean energy, and providing robust clean energy jobs training and recruitment programs, will dramatically increase the economic gains to the people of our state. • Also, with the investments made in clean energy to advance clean electricity technological efficiency at scale, home energy efficiency, regional wind capacity, battery storage and low-cost alternative financing such as the New Jersey Green Bank, accelerating clean energy deployments will provide significant cost savings to New Jersey ratepayers compared to a “business-as-usual” scenario. In fact, solar is now the cheapest form of electricity generation. • Efforts to date in New Jersey to: put more than 200,000 electric vehicles on the road; install 4,200 charging stations; access nearly $2 billion in federal funding from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, including $13 million in IRA funding for zero-emission school buses and $400 million in IRA funds to electrify our ports [10][11]; and legislate and invest in electrification of medium- and heavy-duty vehicles, have led to reduced pollution in our neighborhoods and schools while saving money for New Jerseyans, businesses, and schools. Public Health Benefits of Clean Energy • Numerous studies have shown that phasing out fossil fuels will prevent thousands of premature deaths and save billions in healthcare costs. • Reducing air pollutants and mitigating the effects of extreme heat will reduce emergency room utilization and heathcare costs for a wide range of conditions such as asthma, heat exhaustion, and hypertension, of which fossil-fuel associated emissions are a direct contributing factor. • The health benefits calculated by BPU under the EMP, while substantial, likely significantly underestimate the true health benefits of decarbonization. In fact, it is estimated that roughly $30 billion could be saved statewide from the health benefits stemming from emissions reductions [12]. • Additional indirect benefits include increased productivity due to less days of work or school missed due to emissions and climate-related health impacts. • By committing to 100% Clean Energy by 2035, New Jersey stands to benefit from major investments that will put New Jersey on a clear path to a safer, healthier, and more prosperous future. As an example, one model of the health benefits of greenhouse gas reduction from IRA investments predicts that nationally we can avoid nearly one million asthma attacks, 41,000 heart attacks, and 19,000 hospital admissions - a total of more than three million lost workdays and 33,000 deaths – by 2050, just by cleaning up our air and reducing pollution [13]. Proportionately, New Jerseyans are expected to similarly benefit from these investments. Economic and Societal Costs of Inaction • The recent dramatic projected increase in electricity rates that New Jersey faces as a result of the most recent PJM auction in 2024 demonstrates the real and significant risk of failing to rapidly implement non-fossil fuel-based clean energy sources. In particular, the failure of PJM to interconnect the backlog of new sources of electricity generation, of which 95% are clean energy sources, as well as failure to historically adequately account for the unreliability of aging fossil fuel generating plants, has primarily led to the current rate crisis. One analysis indicated that if only 30% of the currently backlogged renewable projects had been interconnected, the market clearing price could have been reduced by as much as 63% [14]. • As solar and onshore wind are now the lowest-cost sources of electricity generation as compared to fossil fuels, these rate hikes underscore the urgent need to bring on adequate clean energy capacity in order to drive down and stabilize costs for ratepayers. • These events further emphasize the critical role of clean energy to bring reliability in addition to affordability, based on improvements of storage technologies, ability to generate power locally in-state without reliance on regional or national stability, and decreased reliance on aging fossil fuel plants. • The risks to New Jersey's economy are severe should the state fail to meet its clean energy goals, putting tens of billions of dollars in investment and economic output in jeopardy. • Failing to commit to 100% clean energy by 2035 further puts at risk the heath of children, pregnant women, overburdened communities, the elderly, and those with other illnesses who are already disproportionately affected by the impacts of fossil fuel pollutants. New Jersey residents—particularly those in historically redlined neighborhoods and communities near highways, power plants, or industrial facilities— already bear the brunt of this pollution. These are the same communities often lacking access to green space, cooling infrastructure, or quality healthcare. Environmental injustice is health injustice. • In addition to the direct costs of inadequate action transitioning to 100% clean energy, there will be severe impacts on indirect costs such as dramatic increases in emergency room and healthcare utilization, loss of productivity due to missed days of work and school, and reliance on already strained public services and budgets. • By BPU’s calculations, the net societal benefit of adopting a 100% clean energy by 2035 EMP approach $100 billion. To forego such benefits by failing to complete a rapid and just transition to 100% clean energy would not only be irresponsible for New Jersey taxpayers and ratepayers, it would be morally reprehensible in terms of impacts on the health and well-being of every New Jerseyan. Conclusion • The BPU is to be commended for putting forward an aggressive, yet achievable, set of scenarios for New Jersey to reach the crucial goal of 100% Clean Energy by 2035. • The health and prosperity of New Jerseyans are already being impacted by the effects of a warming climate, experienced as more extreme heat, worsening air pollution, higher energy costs, and lost days of productivity. Committing to 100% clean energy now would reduce such harms dramatically and is imperative to protect the public health and economic well-being of New Jerseyans. • In addition to saving lives, phasing out polluting oil and gas as energy sources could save New Jerseyans billions of dollars in healthcare costs thanks to the health benefits of emissions reductions. More importantly, however, are the real impacts on the everyday lives of people in our state. Clean energy is not just about reducing emissions and costs; it’s about reducing emergency room visits for asthma, lowering blood pressure in children exposed to pollution, and giving vulnerable populations a fighting chance in a changing climate. • The BPU should take bold action in enacting a high electrification scenario, one in which our electricity generation, transportation and building sectors are moved toward the lowest possible use of fossil fuel baseload generation and heating needs, and projected increases in demand are met exclusively with decarbonized, non-fossil sources such as solar, wind, and nuclear capacity. • Moreover, beyond policy set forth by BPU, it is imperative that New Jersey lawmakers re-introduce and pass legislation that will codify 100% Clean Energy by 2035 into law without delay.

Pat Miller4/30/2025 6:30:51 PMThank you for the opportunity to comment on this March 13, 2025, draft slide presentation of the 2024 New Jersey Energy Master Plan (EMP), Docket No. QO24020126. I am Pat Miller, Co-leader of NJ 50x30 Building Electrification. Our mission is to leave a livable world for our children and grandchildren. Our state’s progress in implementing the NJ 2019 EMP is failing to meet even its modest goals, especially in the one sector I am most concerned with, building efficiency and electrification. We must do better if our children are going to have a shot at living the sort of life we now enjoy. We are seeing the results of climate change every day now in floods, drought or forest fires. Clean energy is the solution to curb these impacts, to reduce pollution, improve reliability and affordability, and to see environmental justice in all our communities. Of the 3 scenarios the current draft of the 2024 EMP is proposing, the hybrid solution, where fossil fuel continues to be consumed in every sector, must be a non-starter. Consumers should not be expected to pay for 2 duplicate systems (electric and fossil) in either building space conditioning or transportation. The EMP’s optimal clean energy solution needs to be a combination of the best aspects of the High Electrification and Demand Management pathways. We support full electrification of the buildings and transportation sectors powered by 100% clean electricity. Electricity in NJ needs to be 100% clean by 2035. We must meet Gov. Murphy’s EO316 targets for buildings by 2030 and the NESCAUM MOU 2040 targets and continue exponential growth of fully electrified, zero energy buildings thereafter. We must continue to require the Advanced Clean Cars and Trucks rules for ZEVs. And we must more aggressively pursue both solar and offshore wind development to achieve our clean energy goals fight and expect to win against the federal government’s battles against clean energy development. Again, I appreciate the opportunity to comment. I urge the state to put the “no regret” actions into place immediately and to minimize delay in finalizing the 2024 EMP.  
Edward Neblock4/30/2025 6:09:26 PMClimate change caused by GHGs will disrupt our world and has already negatively affected NJ. We must work to minimize these impacts through building a clean, resilient, and affordable electrical energy system for NJ. Renewable and nuclear sources are key to building a robust electrical generation and distribution grid in NJ. The proposed EMP that moves toward 100% clean electricity by 2035 is the essential road map to clean and expand our energy sources while encouraging energy efficiency. To reduce costs and emphasize self reliance through residential solar, mini grids and community solar, include policies and reforms to speed the building process and reduce the cost of installation of solar energy systems which are the highest in the world. Revise building codes to increase energy efficiency & make homes & businesses ready for full electrification and encourage solar. Streamlining the process for interconnection of renewables to the grid is an aspect which must be addressed to reduce the cost of electrical power in New Jersey. I support the EMP, an important effort to improve the lives of New Jersey residents. 
Alexander Griffin4/30/2025 4:40:33 PMIt is vital that we support affordable, clean energy for NJ. It's a win win situation for all of NJ. This would reduce energy consumption, accelerate deployment of renewable energy, maximize energy efficiency, reduce energy consumption, decarbonize NJ, and expand the clean energy innovation economy. This is counter to all of the damage that climate change causes, i.e. floods, heat waves, hurricanes, wild fires, etc. We need an EMP that moves toward 100% clean electricity by 2035. Also, NJ must not give up on offshore wind and now solar energy is even cheaper.  
Allison McLeod4/30/2025 4:33:43 PMMay 1, 2025 Secretary of the Board of Public Utilities 44 South Clinton Ave., 1st Floor PO Box 350 Trenton, NJ 08625-0350 Submitted via email to: board.secretary@bpu.nj.gov In the Matter of Docket No. QO24020126 – 2024 Energy Master Plan Introduction New Jersey LCV is the statewide political voice for the environment. We elect environmentally responsible candidates to state and local offices, advocate for strong environmental policies, and hold our elected officials accountable to safeguard the health of our communities, the beauty of our state, and the strength of our economy. Thank you to the staff of the Board of Public Utilities (“the Board”) for their dedicated work on the 2024 Energy Master Plan (EMP) and for the opportunity to comment on the draft EMP findings. Overview and Context New Jersey LCV commends the Board for taking a bold vision on a just and equitable transition to a clean energy future by 2035. We commend the Board for including the 2035 target, an ambitious but much-needed goal, in all three “mitigation” scenarios to update the goal of 100% clean energy by 2050 laid out in the previous EMP. 2024 was the warmest year on record, beating the previous warmest year – 2023. New Jersey is warming faster than the rest of the country. Our sea level is rising, and we are also sinking. We cannot afford to wait. In a time when federal actions have created a landscape of uncertainty around the future of clean energy, particularly the offshore wind industry, it is up to New Jersey to demonstrate that clean energy is cheaper, cleaner, faster to get online, and creates local jobs – all while helping to mitigate the worst impacts of climate change. Not only does clean energy mitigate the climate crisis and improve air quality and public health, but it is cheaper. We have all seen the effects of reliance on fossil fuels, and failure to interconnect amore than five-year energy project queue into our grid, on our rates. If our regional grid, PJM, had interconnected even 30% of the more than 1,500 clean energy projects waiting in the queue, the most recent capacity auction would have been 63% cheaper. This translates to real savings for New Jersey’s working families and businesses. We emphasize that solar is the cheapest form of energy, is faster to interconnect and increase supply, and does not require ongoing fuel costs – and it is projected to get cheaper overtime. If New Jersey moves to 100% clean electricity by 2035 and becomes a net zero importer as outlined in the proposed EMP, we can turn away from the volatility of fossil fuels, stabilize and decrease our costs, and create family-sustaining, local jobs here in New Jersey. A movement to clean energy would also ensure that our most vulnerable residents, particularly seniors and children, can breathe cleaner air. As outlined in the recent American Lung Association state of the air report, New Jersey has failing air quality across the state, exacerbating conditions like asthma and heart disease, particularly in overburdened communities with a long and dark history of pollution. The stakes are high. We urge the administration and staff of the BPU to put forward a strong, clean, and powerful renewable energy plan to move us into our clean energy future – one that protects ratepayers, one that protects public health, and one that protects our climate. We strongly support the pathway to 100% clean electricity by 2035, and we respectfully offer the following comments to further enhance the 2024 EMP. Feedback on the Draft 2024 Energy Master Plan Findings It is important to note that in all three scenarios, electrification will increase over time, but we believe it is important to characterize why electrification is increasing. Throughout the EMP process, misinformation has wrongly attributed rising utility costs to clean energy policy. In fact, electrification is increasing as we pursue artificial intelligence data centers, huge consumers of power in the PJM region, and this should be clearly stated and accounted for in the EMP. Increasing costs have been repeatedly misattributed to building and vehicle electrification (EVs)/decarbonization. In fact, EV usage in New Jersey currently accounts for approximately 1% of New Jersey’s total electric demand. Under current law, utilities are under 2% demand reduction requirements, meaning EV usage is not yet registering . A goal of 100% clean energy by 2035 does not increase the need for power – that is going to happen regardless. It merely designates that we get that energy from cheaper, cleaner, local sources that are faster to interconnect. This is an important clarification. All three mitigation scenarios significantly reduce emissions in million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent from current policy. This is critical, as 2050 has been widely acknowledged by leading climate experts as our global tipping point. We note that it is interesting that all three scenarios are relatively close in total reductions. We do, however, note the importance to environmental justice to account for, and mitigate, co-pollutants. While carbon dioxide and carbon dioxide equivalent are critical metrics for greenhouse gas and climate change emissions, the combustion of fossil fuels contributes significantly to poor air quality from particulates, NOx, and other co-pollutants – and the associated public health problems, particularly for sensitive populations. Wherever possible, the EMP should acknowledge and strive to reduce not only carbon emissions, but harmful co-pollutants. On slide 19 of the stakeholder presentation, the findings state: “Gas demand for buildings and industry declines by over 70% by 2050 in all GHG mitigation scenarios, but continues to play an important role through 2050 by providing peak heating needs in many buildings. RNG is only needed to meet the economy-wide target in the Hybrid Electrification (5% blend by 2050)”. We have a number of concerns with including RNG for indoor building electrification use in any scenario, and we emphasize that in any scenario, there is no need to propose renewable natural gas (RNG) in buildings. We acknowledge that there are sectors that will be hard to electrify with current technology, i.e., aviation fuel or certain industrial processes. However, buildings are not a hard to electrify sector. There has been no wide-scale study on the potential public health impacts to blending RNG with hydrogen, as has been previously proposed in New Jersey, and combusting it in homes for fuel. RNG and hydrogen blending will make our infrastructure weaker and would require new infrastructure for distribution. This could incur massive cost to ratepayers, and as we transition off RNG, this will leave ratepayers paying for decades for stranded asset obsolete infrastructure. We strongly encourage the EMP to not include RNG for building fuel in any future scenario. The EMP should not include any incentives for natural gas into the future, instead focusing on incentives for truly clean technologies. As outlined, peaks of peak demand will only increase as summers get hotter, and air conditioning is used more frequently, due to anthropogenic climate change. As the EMP stakeholder presentation outlines on slide 20, “New electricity demands will largely be met by decarbonized sources like solar and offshore wind”. We think it is important to acknowledge that while we do not need offshore wind to meet our 100% clean energy goals by 2050, New Jersey’s proposed projects would have provided significant additional capacity to meet our increasing demand. In the face of federal actions targeting offshore wind, and in a time when we have seen rising utility costs, it is incongruous to not leave all tools in the toolbox to increase new clean energy supply. Indeed, recent comments from regional grid operator PJM outlined that had offshore wind come online, that would have helped combat the rising utility costs from the PJM capacity auction. In addition, we think it is important to note that to date, New Jerseyans have not paid for the development of offshore wind projects, as none are able to deliver electricity. Over the lifetime of the next EMP, we can expect the federal landscape on offshore wind to change. The EMP should create an environment for future offshore wind projects to continue, delivering clean, renewable energy to New Jersey’s working families and businesses. Under current policy, the significant reliance on importing energy remains in 2050 (slide 23). This puts New Jersey in a weaker bargaining position with PJM, the regional grid. We should be pursuing all options, including offshore wind, to become a net energy exporter by 2035. This will not only save ratepayers money, it will decarbonize our grid and improve our air quality, create family sustaining jobs in New Jersey, and give us significant bargaining power with our regional grid operator to negotiate price caps. On slide 25, the societal impacts to increasing clean energy supply and improving air quality are well documented, whether that be reduced mortality, air quality improvement, less sick days from school and work, etc. We note that while it is easy to leave this as a note in the EMP document, this translates to improved health, quality of life, and even longer life spans for real New Jerseyans. We should never forget the human impact of our energy policies. Regarding other emerging technologies, we encourage New Jersey to pursue all viable technologies, particularly during the current pause on offshore wind, to pursue increasing our clean energy portfolio. While there may not be significant potential for tidal energy in New Jersey, for example, as compared to other states, it should be studied to see how many homes and buildings could decarbonize from proposed wave pilot studies. We suggest the EMP clarify what is meant by “other clean firm” (slide 31) – as the examples listed included RNG and blended hydrogen. Any presentation of RNG as “clean” technology is misleading and should be eliminated in the final document. We strongly support the expansion and inclusion of battery storage as an additional clean, renewable tool in all mitigation scenarios. Regarding slide 26 and jobs, it is important to note that the Fuels and Transportation sectors see job displacement due to reductions in fuel demand. However, parallel policies concurrent with the EMP can help ensure that those who will face job displacement are relocated, and these policies should be prioritized. For example, the suggested creation of an Office of Just Transition to help affected workers who will be displaced would provide an additional resource. Regarding slide 27, New Jersey’s current policy has a disparity amongst EV adoption and current policy. Rebates have been lowered, and suggestion EV registration fees are the highest in the nation. This does not align with the EMP’s goals of increasing EV adoption and usage. There must be more incentives to help low- and moderate-income (LMI) customers make the transition to new technologies, including EVs. Reducing state EV incentives at a time and introducing punitive registration fees at a time when the federal government is also reducing incentives does not align with our goals to increase adoption. Furthermore, the EMP should clarify whether the mitigation scenarios EV and heat pump adoption scenarios account for the recent loss in federal funding, such as through the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) programs. This funding loss will undoubtably have an impact on the speed of consumer adoption, but all three mitigation scenarios outline that widespread adoption must happen fairly quickly to meet targets. Similarly, rebates and incentives for heat pumps must also meet the need of LMI customers to expand adoption. Across programs, the EMP should, where possible, streamline incentives to participate in LMI programs across state, federal, and utility programs, maximizing participation among eligible ratepayers. In the long-term, as more customers leave the gas system, gas will only become more expensive. We cannot leave those with the least ability to afford transition to cleaner technologies footing the bill as gas increases in cost. The EMP should outline long-term rebate and planning to help those LMI customers transition before significant price increases in the gas system. In general, we urge the EMP to be extremely conservative with any assumptions regarding federal funding, whether from the IRA or otherwise. It would be prudent to not assume there will be funding benefits for additional critical programs like LIHEAP, HOMES, or HEEHR until at least through 2028. We request clarity on slide 28 regarding “Building shell and insulation further improve bill savings for customers”. Weatherization and insulation improve energy efficiency and thus cost savings, but it is not clear what the draft EMP is discussing regarding building “shells”, or what incentives or planning the EMP will take into account to expand these programs. In addition, the findings on slide 29 state “there may be an opportunity to reduce net costs of decarbonization through targeted electrification and strategic demand management”, but what those opportunities may be, and their impacts, are not fully explored. More details on these sections would enable stakeholders to provide more informed feedback on the building decarbonization areas. In general, the EMP findings as presented do not provide sufficient detail on the future of natural gas planning. While goals have been outlined by Executive Order, there has not been a robust public process regarding natural gas. The EMP is a natural place to rectify this, as it includes long-term energy and fuel planning, and we were disappointed to not see more robust discussion in this area. Infrastructure and ongoing fuel costs have not only climate impacts, but significant ratepayer impacts, all of which should be addressed in the EMP. Similarly, beyond rebates and the adoption of heat pumps as outlined in the scenarios, we would appreciate more discussion on the building decarbonization road map in the final EMP, including clear benchmarks and timelines in the planning process. Conclusion New Jersey has long been a national leader in clean energy, and the 2024 EMP provides us with an opportunity to do so again, particularly at a time when the federal landscape for clean energy is dim. New Jersey already has policies underway to reach many of the goals laid out in EO 315, 316, and 317, but we must be thoughtful and deliberative about our progress. In order to reach 100% clean energy by 2035 in a just and equitable way, we must ensure we support incentives to transition LMI customers and displaced workers to our clean energy future. In reducing carbon emissions, we must also acknowledge the environmental justice communities who have suffered the effects of co-pollutants for far too long, and implement plans to reduce co-pollutants and improve air quality. We must support the offshore wind industry at the state level, even as we expand solar – our cheapest form of energy – and pursue battery storage and additional technologies. We must be conservative with any estimates of federal support at least through 2028, and we should ensure our plans not only support our clean energy future, but also support ratepayers. When we discuss clean technologies, it is important to acknowledge that renewable natural gas is not clean and should not be presented as such. It is possible to accomplish all our goals while pursuing an aggressive path to 100% clean energy by 2035. We have a unique opportunity to shape and control our own clean energy future, and to become energy neutral – or even an energy exporter – by 2035. Clean energy represents the cheaper, cleaner, faster, way to increase our energy supply and address ratepayer impacts – all while creating family-sustaining jobs. We strongly support the vision for a 100% clean energy future by 2035 and thank you for the opportunity to offer comments to further strengthen the EMP.

Paul Teshima4/30/2025 2:49:24 PMIt is easy to see that the earth is responding to the high levels of carbon in the atmosphere with increasingly turbulent and destructive weather events. Strong storms, very high winds, and historic droughts are causing many problems for everyone, everywhere on earth, including wildfires and floods. I believe that climate chaos is the biggest, most important long term problem humanity faces, and one that all people have a moral obligation to help correct. As such, I support an EMP that reduces the burning of fossil fuels and I support the additional build-out of solar and wind electric generation. Subsidies for electric car charging are also money well spent.

Christine Coari4/29/2025 8:31:34 PMClean Energy is an investment in the future. Warming temperatures are changing weather patterns posing risks to people and wildlife. Clean Energy is the solution and must be a priority for New Jersey. It will improve the air quality in New Jersey. Also, manufacturing, deployment and sales in the Clean Energy sector will boost the economy. 
Alejandro Meseguer4/29/2025 4:05:13 PMWe must adopt clean renewable energy so our next generations will enjoy clean air and water. Please work to implement solar, wind, geothermal, and any and all clean sources of energy. We should transition away from fossil fuels. We appreciate the work the NJ BPU, and Governor Murphy, and all that have contributed to the energy transition. Thank you and keep up the good work!  
Rita Brown4/29/2025 2:17:17 PMIt is imperative that New Jersey take action to ensure that our future has a wide range of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar. Our air, water, soil and climate are already severely impacted by pollution and climate change. Many of us, including myself, suffer from health issues caused or exasperated by theses conditions. All New Jersey residents deserve a healthy environment. We can use the jobs as well. 
Barbara Miller4/29/2025 9:04:29 AM Climate Change impacts continue to be felt by all of us. From inland floods, coastal erosion from sea level rise, extreme heat, record breaking wildfires – all felt here in NJ. NJ continues to experience tremendous pollution and bad air quality. The majority of NJ counties continue to fail for ozone and particulate matter pollution. Clean Energy is the solution to curb the impacts of climate change, reduce pollution, and improve reliability and affordability. Enough with antiquated and inefficient forms of energy generation. Fossil fuels are subject to global price volatility and geopolitical conflicts. Clean energy is home grown and provides energy independence. I strongly support the responsible development of offshore wind in NJ. Offshore wind is needed for NJ to be able to substantially add to our electricity supply and to meaningfully reduce pollution in the state. NJ’s Offshore Wind needs to be on solid ground for when the time comes to launch it again. NJ must not give up on offshore wind. Solar is the cheapest form of energy, and can be responsibly sited across the state for the much needed scaled up energy generation in the state. Clean energy will reduce our price of electricity. NJ can take control of this energy affordability issue by generating more clean power. I support an EMP that moves into the direction of 100% clean electricity by 2035. The most affordable option for NJ is clean generation. I support full electrification of the transportation and buildings sectors. I support the Advanced Clean Trucks and Advanced Clean Cars II programs. NJ's clean energy transition must prioritize clean energy accessibility and an equitable transition.

Joan Vanderheyden 4/28/2025 10:28:12 PMElectric and plug-in hybrids cars are great for not adding to the amount of CO2 entering the atmosphere. The problem is there are not enough electric chargers around. There should be chargers at every library, Mall, Park, downtown, Food store, restaurant, movie house, ect. Wherever people will be for 1-2 hours, there needs to be chargers. In addition, a way to decrease amount of CO2 in atmosphere is regenerative farming. Food waste needs to be collected and composted, this will decrease amt of methane entering atmosphere (food decomposing in land fills generates methane- another climate warming gas). All farms and public lands in NJ should use compost instead of chemical fertilizer. The compost is a natural CO2 sink - that will decrease amt of CO2 in atmosphere, 
Elizabeth Brzek4/28/2025 9:50:18 PMPlease no offshore wind farms. We do not want to continue to endanger nor kill any more precious marine life and thousands of birds for an expensive, high maintenance project. Solar panels on individual homes is wonderful, but please no solar farms. NJ doesn't have the room. Clean coal and natural gas, yes. There is also geothermal energy. 
JOHN G4/28/2025 8:37:32 PMconstruction of new homes have inefficient heating and cooling. both heat and cool air come out of the same ducts. that means that cool air is coming is mostly coming out of floor level ducts instead of high wall or ceiling ducts and warm air is coming out of both high level and low ducts in most homes. All this means is that occupants have to spend a great deal more to keep comfortable. cold air should only come out of high level wall and ceiling vents. warm air should only come out of low level vents. the state has allowed this.

Yeyffreey Tapia4/15/2025 1:58:19 PMDear Members of the Board of Electricity, I am writing to express deep concern over the recent 30%-50% increase in electricity prices, compounded by additional delivery fees, which have placed a significant financial burden on everyday Americans in New Jersey. For many, the cost of electricity now rivals a car payment, making it increasingly difficult to manage daily living expenses amidst other rising costs. These sharp increases are straining household budgets, forcing families to make tough choices between essentials like food, housing, and utilities. We respectfully urge the Board to explore immediate solutions to lower electricity prices and ease these pressures. While we understand the complexities of energy markets, we ask that you prioritize affordability over profit margins and refrain from adding further costs that disproportionately affect residents. Please take swift action to review pricing structures, reduce unnecessary fees, and implement measures to stabilize costs. New Jersey families deserve relief and a fair chance to thrive without the constant weight of escalating expenses. Sincerely, Jeff  
Brittany Jacobsen4/4/2025 5:55:19 PMTo Whom It May Concern, I am writing to express my strong support for the 2024 New Jersey Energy Master Plan (EMP), particularly its strategies focused on reducing energy consumption and emissions from both the transportation and building sectors. As a resident committed to environmental sustainability and as a professional in public relations, I understand the significance of these strategies in achieving a more sustainable and prosperous future for all New Jerseyans. Strategy 1 of the EMP, which aims to reduce energy consumption and emissions from the transportation sector, is crucial. Transitioning to electric vehicles (EVs), enhancing public transportation, and building infrastructure that supports active transportation like biking and walking can significantly cut down our state's greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality. Similarly, Strategy 4's focus on reducing energy consumption and emissions from the building sector is equally essential. By accelerating the adoption of energy-efficient technologies and practices in residential and commercial buildings, we can achieve substantial energy savings and reduce our overall environmental footprint. The move towards a decarbonized energy system, as outlined in Strategy 5, not only supports the aforementioned strategies but also aligns New Jersey with global climate action goals. This holistic approach ensures that we are not just addressing the symptoms of climate change but are working towards a sustainable transformation of our entire energy landscape. Moreover, these efforts in transportation and building decarbonization will create numerous job opportunities, drive economic growth, and ensure a cleaner environment for future generations. It is imperative that we also prioritize inclusivity as we advance these initiatives, making sure that the benefits of clean energy and reduced emissions reach all communities, particularly those historically marginalized and currently underserved. I urge the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities and all stakeholders involved to continue their commitment to these critical areas. Together, we can make New Jersey a leader in clean energy and sustainability, setting a standard for others to follow. Thank you for considering my views on this vital issue. Sincerely, Brittany 
Thomas Zvolensky3/25/2025 6:09:07 PMThe 2024 New Jersey Energy Master Plan, while driven by concerns about climate change impacts to the state, suffers from fundamental flaws in both premise and execution. The plan's aggressive emissions reduction targets overlook the reality that New Jersey’s contribution to global CO2 emissions is negligible. Even the most ambitious state-level reductions would have an infinitesimal effect on global temperatures or broader climate outcomes. The plan's push for rapid electrification, electric vehicle adoption, and renewable energy deployment lacks pragmatic grounding and strays needlessly into social engineering territory. It inadequately addresses significant hurdles such as infrastructure upgrades, grid reliability during peak demand, and the economic strain placed upon residents to foot the bill. The financial burden, potentially dramatic increases in electricity rates, and mandated equipment upgrades will disproportionately affect working families and small businesses, ultimately undermining economic stability. New Jersey should prioritize providing reliable and affordable energy rather than pursuing costly and minimally impactful climate policies. Additionally, reliance on uncertain federal subsidies compounds these risks, offering little reassurance of long-term financial sustainability. A realistic policy approach would emphasize practical, market-driven solutions that to ensure economic viability, energy reliability, and scalability to meet future energy needs. To me, this plan reads like it was composed by a group of climate change and social justice warriors on a meth bender.

Lisa Bonanno3/18/2025 12:43:02 AMThank you for your hard work on the EMP. It’s important to envision a an improved future. I need to mention that I think the rate of expected heat pump acquisition seems very ambitious unless there are substantial subsidies or tax breaks or both. It’s also important to plan for affordable electric rates. Hold PJM strictly accountable starting today. And I wish I could show you what it’s like to enter the home of an elderly heart failure or COPD patient. The hot, humid air is heavy on the chest. I have to call an ambulance because they can’t breathe well. Lower rates are an imperative even now, as economic stress increase under the Trump administration. We need rate relief at this moment and it must be considered as we choose clean energy sources going forward.

Pamela Barroway3/17/2025 2:39:36 PMTransitioning to clean energy generation is essential, and I am in favor of the NJ Energy Master plan and its 7 strategies. That said, there are steps the BPU can take to make the transition more robust. For example: ~Committing to and fast-tracking reconductoring of transmission lines to enable hooking up of more solar and other clean energy to the grid. In it's June 5. 2024 article, Sierra Club -- New Jersey Chapter says: "Experts in the transmission business estimate that reconductoring can yield energy savings of 50% or more and can take significantly less time than building new infrastructure. More savings are possible because reconductored lines can hook up to more solar and wind energy plants." (attached as PDF and link: https://www.sierraclub.org/new-jersey/blog/2024/06/more-juice-power-grid-reconductoring) ~Approve more Community Solar project and support installation of Community Solar by supporting bills in the New Jersey Legislature such as A5264/S4100 "Requires establishment of automated platform to expedite construction code approval of applications to install residential solar energy systems." (PDFs attached, link: https://www.njleg.state.nj.us/bill-search/2024/A5264) ~Support and promote installation of more EV charging stations statewide through legislation/grants since NEVI is kaput. ~Implement other successful renewable options, like enhanced geothermal, of which large projects are coming online currently, with more in the pipeline.

Alejandro Meseguer3/13/2025 9:49:02 PM"Renewables plus batteries, he said, are the cheapest, fastest, and easiest way to meet the surging power demand from data centers driven by the acceleration in artificial intelligence." Renewables
Brian Thompson3/13/2025 5:29:45 PMAs a follow to my oral comments I would suggest specific actions to be implemented: 1/ Encourage ONSHORE wind along the coast and in the mountains, with tax breaks/incentives plus perhaps rebates including micro turbines, one of which I saw for sale for approx. $2700 that could be mounted on homes, condos, etc. along Jersey Shore and in mountains. 2/ Require Data Centers to get much of their energy from solar panels, including over retention basins while also encouraging panels over existing warehouse/office complex retention basins. 3/ tax breaks/incentives for solar panels on every warehouse in NJ 4/ Jumpstart the transition of state vehicles to EVs, especially in DOT and Turnpike Authority. 5/ Rework plans for LED conversion of municipal street lights. Originally in the 2019 plan, it simply has not worked and a new program needs to be developed (I know, I tried to do it in my town back then…got no traction). 
Jeanette Bergeron3/13/2025 5:21:22 PMThe current electrical transmission lines cannot handle all the renewable energy that the sun and wind can generate. That’s why utilities limit the number of solar panels on roofs. Why are we limiting the energy that solar can generate? We need a model that allows people to generate as much energy from their panels as possible and store it in batteries AND to upgrade the grid’s infrastructure to handle more energy flowing through it. The electrical conductors in the current grid are based on technology from 1908. Upgrading to 2016 technology from companies like TS Technology, triples grid capacity AND reduces the energy lost in transmission by 50 percent. The technology uses a carbon composite core that is twice the strength of steel at less than half of the weight (not the expensive, delicate ceramic or glass cores of the 1990s) insulated in aluminum instead of the current heavy steel core. And it can be installed without replacing the towers. Carbon composite core lines are corrosion proof, heat-tolerant, and sag-proof which make the lines more resilient in wildfires and extreme weather. And because you don’t have to replace or retrofit the towers (which account for 90 percent of the costs of upgrades including labor), the cost of the upgrade is minimal. This dramatically reduces greenhouse gas emissions just with the efficiency savings alone, while allowing more capacity for electric cars, heat pumps, and data centers. Grid conductors have a lifespan of 50 to 75 years—let’s not wait half a century to reap the efficiency and capacity of modern carbon composite technology. Also, the cost per kwh of nuclear energy to build another reactor is way more expensive than any alternative monetarily, plus the waste disposal issue will always be a problem.  
Cassandra Gilbert (she/her)3/13/2025 2:52:48 PMA person raised a concern during the public stakeholder meeting about having to see the wind turbines for the rest of our lives whenever we go to the beach and I would like to say that I have absolutely no problem with seeing such structures if it means this state is taking meaningful steps towards clean energy and actually trying to give us a future. The only reason that I would care with regards to those is if there's any risk of impact of them becoming unstable and hitting the coast in the event of a major storm, since we've been getting those with increasing frequency; yet I do also worry about the impact on the marine life where the turbines will be inserted into the ocean floor. I understand most of the claims around these offshore wind farms have been a hoax, but this has nothing to do with those; I just wonder about anything involving drilling into the ocean floor without heavy consideration and incredible planning. Obviously striving for cleaner energy is imperative and the claims that it should be scrapped altogether for the sake of energy affordability for NJ is preposterous considering the incredible financial toll climate disasters take. As someone who is very low income and who is living in incredible fear waiting to find out about the terrifying cuts the current federal administration/regime will approve to programs ranging from disability/social security to LIHEAP, cost of living increases are not something I take lightly, but I also am very well aware that this is VITAL work. We must not solely fixate on the micro level; definitely cannot base our policy (especially something that ultimately saves lives and improves well being) on false claims and baseless conspiracies or ramblings of people with no interest in preserving the environment or human life; should not continue to think of our utility bill or energy related costs as separate from everything else related to climate change; and we can't keep falling for the promise of a few cents cheaper in the short run trick to ultimately wind up paying significantly more in the long-run (actual financial costs and the other kinds, like cost of our health or grief). I definitely agree with all of that. Unfortunately, I am concerned this plan may not be looking at just the few cents cheaper and with where the economy is and is heading, it kind of does make quite a difference. The way this plan is laid out feels very much like how economic "solutions" often go, where it ultimately ends with a greater financial burden being placed on the poorest. For example, rebates were mentioned for everything from EV to heating systems, but that requires a person being able to pay the upfront costs. How can you make sure to protect the low income folks that can't afford these investments who will be saddled with the resulting increased gas prices you mention will come of people switching to renewable energy? The middle and low income folks won't be able to afford those out of pocket costs, while the upper middle and wealthy folks will be able to, which means they ultimately reap those benefits and still get the rebate. With NJ's problem with homelessness and extreme income inequality, I'm concerned about the ways certain people will be overlooked and thus the wealth gap even further worsened. How do we make sure people don't get left behind? How difficult will it be to convert rural communities? What will the cost to them be where there are less people to split the cost between? What's the thought for their equipment like tractors (much of the state is farmland), which run on gas? They'll either be forced paying exorbitant gas prices as a result of the rest of the state going renewable energy or the state will have to make sure farm equipment is made that can run on something other than gas. People currently working in the unclean energy sector (who are not at the top or responsible for the awful things happening, just working class people trying to get by or people with no other qualifications who are unable to get other kinds of work), especially those who are close to retirement age and thus unable to learn a new trade, need to be taken into consideration. For those who are able to learn a new trade, there needs to be an easy transition plan in place so they are not forced to lose work or anything (thus not harming the economy, hurting the people, or giving a reason for people to resist this plan). With the way this was presented, it also makes me wonder how this might slow the move to increase affordable housing as they spoke of erecting new structures. In a broader sense, you should be looking at what is the impact of tearing down new buildings to make new energy efficient buildings. What about penalizing companies for tearing down existing structures that were sufficient and could have just been renovated to be energy efficient? Throughout New Jersey (and the country) commercial real estate developers are tearing down existing buildings (even fairly new ones) just to erect the same kind of building to attempt to attract new leasers (as in without having people already lined up/an actual demand). They're actually jeopardizing our economy taking out loans to do this, even if they're already defaulting on loans elsewhere, and despite studies showing high rates of development projects going unfinished as developers can't afford to continue. This method of tearing down perfectly fine structures just to build something new in its place when there are all these abandoned buildings (that could be used for shelters at the very least) and no demand because businesses can't stay afloat in this economy must be wasting a LOT of resources and taking a huge toll on our environment, especially contributing significantly to the carbon footprint. I understand the need for energy efficient buildings and that some places definitely need a complete overhaul, but I can't imagine that all of these office buildings, storefronts, and medical facilities, particularly ones that have been erected or seen major renovations within the past decade are better torn down completely and built almost exactly the same instead of making adjustments (even just keeping the beams and foundation I'd imagine would save some energy). You should assess the impact of these unnecessary, wasteful projects and penalize companies that engage in such a detrimental, frivolous approach. There's a big focus on electric vehicles. How are people who live in places with only street parking supposed to charge electric vehicles? Or people who have to commute far for work? Or cab&ride service drivers, delivery drivers&couriers, or others who use a personal vehicle they own and can't afford an EV or maybe can but isn't practical for driving around all day? Is there any chance finances that were initially budgeted for this plan when this was written up will now have to be redirected to preserving other efforts to fight back against the new administration since it's now aggressively attacking NJ and environmental policy as well as withholding already promised funds to the state? What's the likelihood this will lead to delays? Can we really be assured of rebates on things like EV with these new tariffs and things that are likely to drive up costs of cars (even those made within the US because of the materials we have to import)? Since it has been proven that when Indigenous groups lead or are part of the planning process for environmental policy, conservation and recovery are much more rapidly and effectively improved (plus the fact that Native communities are disproportionately impacted by pretty much everything the government does), have any Native American groups been consulted/brought onto this at all? There are three recognized tribes in NJ, but there are organizations you can contact that aren't restricted to these tribes who can guide you to the best people as well, I'm sure. Again, I am completely for a rapid push towards clean, renewable energy and I am not even against this master plan. I just want to be sure that certain communities are not overlooked. As a staunch progressive, I will say that I think it is important to make sure you go into "red" districts and consult with folks there to make sure you really understand their concerns. In the city and suburban areas, you're going to hear about the standard cost concerns for the utility bills, but in the rural areas is where I think you'll find some people with a more insightful range of concerns or even opportunities that we all may have missed (don't just assume they'll all spew bogus talking points from the lies they were told like their elected officials do; they just may not catch wind of these kinds of meetings because they're not exactly in the same circles where they're as likely to come across this - point is that, while I know it's unconventional for a Progressive to say, particularly in these times, particularly about environmental issues, there ARE people in very red districts who can offer very helpful, unique insight as they often lean red because Republicans are the only ones who bother reaching out to them). I also agree with the commenter who spoke during the public shareholder meeting about partnering with schools on this project: I believe it would be an incredibly beneficial tool to extend an opportunity to schools in the state to help advance this initiative, potentially even offer alternative workforce opportunities for students who are exceptional in STEM who choose not to go to college as some other states offer. Even if not that, there are some great schools throughout the state (even BCC has a fantastic STEM program) and tapping into these minds for alternative solutions is an innovative move, which could prove crucial for advancing such an ambitious agenda so rapidly.

Philip Pong3/13/2025 11:17:50 AMMy name is Philip Pong (last name spelled P-O-N-G), and I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT). NJIT is committed to clean energy innovation, grid modernization, and workforce development, and I am here today to stress the importance of collaboration between NJIT, the BPU, and the State to support the implementation of the Energy Master Plan (EMP). New Jersey has set ambitious clean energy goals, and while consultants are drafting the EMP, achieving these goals will require innovative and practical solutions that go beyond planning. As one of New Jersey’s leading research universities, NJIT has the expertise, technology, and facilities to help the State implement and accelerate the EMP strategies. However, one critical gap in the EMP is the lack of formal involvement of universities in research, development, and workforce training to support the State’s clean energy transition. There should be EMP-funded fellowships to support graduate research students working on EMP-related challenges, and EMP seed funding to help universities explore innovative, high-risk, high-reward research that can directly support the EMP’s goals. Without these mechanisms, we risk missing out on cutting-edge advancements and the talent needed to drive long-term success. For example, the EMP aims to electrify transportation to reduce carbon emissions. However, practical challenges remain, such as deploying a massive EV charging infrastructure that integrates seamlessly with the power grid. NJIT’s expertise in power systems, sensors, and smart grid technology can provide innovative solutions to help make this transition smoother and more efficient. Additionally, NJIT has already proposed concrete, research-backed solutions to the seven strategies of the EMP through its public hearing comments. While New Jersey has top-tier universities and national laboratories, there is no formal mechanism for academic institutions to obtain funding support to actively contribute to the EMP’s implementation. BPU and the State should work directly with NJIT and other research institutions to pilot and deploy real-world solutions for New Jersey’s energy future. NJIT is also willing to help coordinate and integrate efforts from other NJ universities to support this mission. I strongly urge the BPU and the State to formalize collaboration with NJIT in the implementation phase of the EMP and to establish EMP-funded fellowships and seed funding to leverage university expertise. NJIT stands ready to partner with BPU, industry, and government agencies to ensure that New Jersey remains a leader in clean energy innovation and infrastructure development. We welcome the opportunity for a direct conversation with BPU leadership to explore how NJIT can contribute to realizing the EMP. Thank you.

Thomas Zvolensky3/10/2025 4:55:37 PMI oppose New Jersey’s 2024 Energy Master Plan because it is **unrealistic, costly, and fails to ensure reliable energy for residents and businesses.** First, the goal of achieving 100% clean electricity by 2035 without expanding nuclear power is simply not feasible. No nation, state or city has demonstrated the feasibility of such a goal. Nuclear is the only proven, large-scale, low-emission energy source that can provide consistent, reliable power. Instead of prioritizing nuclear expansion, the state is betting on unreliable wind and solar, which have already led to skyrocketing energy prices in Europe (e.g., Denmark, Germany). New Jersey cannot afford to make the same mistake. Second, there is no intention of hardening our electrical grid against an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attack from a foreign adversary. This is a glaring oversight. A single EMP event—whether natural or man-made—would cripple our infrastructure and send us back to the 19th century. The state should take immediate steps to ensure energy security against such a threat. I oppose the plan’s emphasis on the electrification of homes for heating. Natural gas is clean, abundant, and affordable. Heat pump conversions are expensive and inefficient in cold weather. Many homeowners do not want to be forced into this costly and unreliable transition. Finally, electric vehicles are not the answer to our transportation needs. Consumers are rejecting them due to high costs, range limitations, and infrastructure challenges. Yet, the state continues pushing EV mandates while ignoring the reality of consumer demand. New Jersey’s energy future should be affordable, reliable, and realistic. This plan fails on all counts. It should be rejected. Pursuing the existing 2030 & 2035 goals will result in more NJ residents fleeing the state.

Walid Hubbi6/12/2024 2:30:44 PMUnless the technology of renewable energy (RE) improves to such a degree that an RE project is competitive in a level playing field with other electricity generation technologies, zero emission is an illusion. Presently, the need for government incentives (PPA...) and mandates (RPS...) to build RE plants suggests that the current technology is not yet economically competitive. Based on the "energy theory of value", it can be argued that the energy expended in constructing and maintaining a utility-scale RE power plant is more than the energy that will be produced from that plant. Claims to the contrary are misleading because they do not consider the energy needed to build the infrastructure (roads, factories, machines...) and the human capital used to build an RE plant. Consequently, when state governments mandate the adoption of renewable energy, they essentially impose a financial burden on residents to address a global climate change issue.  
Edward O'Donnell6/12/2024 1:59:43 PMThe New Jersey Energy Master Plan (EMP) has set a goal of achieving 100 percent clean energy by 2050. Development of offshore wind energy has been adopted as an important element of de-carbonizing the electric energy sector in support of that goal. Towards that end, the BPU has been directed that 11,000 MW of offshore wind be operational by 2040. The BPU has acknowledged that the guaranteed above market OREC prices awarded to developers of these projects will result in increased costs for all classes of ratepayers in the years ahead and has made estimates of how individual projects will raise rates. However, BPU has not made known the full impact of the complete program which envisions 11,000 MW of offshore wind in operation by 2040. In addition, they have not revealed how much the additional transmission upgrades required to transfer all that power from offshore through the PJM grid to the end use customers will add to rates. Given that the magnitude of the costs involved both with installing offshore wind turbines an transmitting the energy produced is substantial, it is expected that the total impact on rates will be significant. In the absence of any official information on the estimate of the full extent to which the offshore wind program, if realized as projected, will impact NJ rates to all classes of ratepayers. Attached is a report summarizing the findings of that analysis which concludes that these added ratepayer costs will exceed $100 billion and raise electric customer rates by 55%, 70% and 80% respectively for residential, commercial and industrial customers. These rate increases will disproportionately impact lower income residents and small businesses throughout the state and will be an additional burden on top of already high electric power costs. As a result many will find it impossible to remain here and will seek more affordable locations to live. While these projects are expected to provide some economic benefit to the state in the forms of new jobs or investment in manufacturing, as well as emissions reduction, an analysis of the Atlantic Shores project shows that these benefits are far outweighed by the cost to ratepayers and harm to the shore tourism economy and provide little or no net emissions benefit to the state. It is clear that the original assumptions regarding the cost of offshore wind have been proven to be far too optimistic. The recent cancellations of approved projects in New Jersey and elsewhere and calls for renegotiations to increase approved OREC prices provide clear evidence that these costs are not under control or even clearly understood. It is important for all stakeholders to understand what the full cost of this program is before decisions are taken that will be irrevocable and commit the residents of the state to paying for a large portion of these costs or incurring charges for cancelation of projects which prove even more expensive than currently estimated. Accordingly, we call upon you to take the following actions: • Undertake a study of the impact on electric rates of the total cost of the offshore wind program, including OREC and transmission costs. • Pause all new awards or changes to approved prices or costs for offshore wind generation and transmission projects in prior or new solicitations until such time as the total program costs are known and can be clearly shown to be justified by benefits to the state and its ratepayers. Attached is a letter and study which provide support for this request.OSWFLtr_GovMurphy_etal-combine

Raymond Cantor6/12/2024 11:47:17 AMDear Ms. Golden: On behalf of the New Jersey Business & Industry Association, the most influential state business association, please accept our comments on the planned update to the 2019 draft Energy Master Plan. NJBIA is in a unique position when it comes to energy policy. As the largest business association in the state, our members include some of the state’s largest employers as well as your Main Street mom and pop businesses. Significantly for these comments, we represent all interests in this policy debate. Our members include most of the energy utilities who supply our residents and businesses with both natural gas and electricity. We also have as members the major businesses engaged in all aspects of renewable energy, from wind developers and transmission providers to solar companies and installers. Many of the businesses driving the “green economy” are our members. Significantly, we also represent the businesses that pay for all that energy, either as major users in the manufacturing sphere or in the normal course of operating a business. We also represent oil and gasoline refineries, the owners of truck fleets that rely on diesel, the retailers who sell their goods, and the installers of both electric and natural gas boilers, among many others. Energy policy, obviously, is extremely important to NJBIA’s members. We look at our role as business advocates, not so much as that of balancing all the various interests, but of seeking the best, most practical solutions to achieve our policy goals, both economic and societal. We are not deniers of climate change, nor are we ideological in our approach. We try to be factual and pragmatic in our policy recommendations. Hopefully those values are reflected in our comments below. There are six foundational principles we believe the EMP must be predicated upon. They will be detailed below, but are: 1) Decarbonization efforts should be practical and human centered; 2) Affordability and reliability must be predicates for all policies; 3) We must emphasize technological advances and consider the role of nuclear power; 4) Sound planning needs to be done before actions are taken; 5) Renewables should continue to be an emphasis of our energy policies; and 6) Energy security in the form of diverse energy options should be a basis for our policy outcomes. There are two hard truths about climate and decarbonization policies. One, energy, primarily through fossil fuels, is essential to our economy and our way of life and, two, substantially eliminating fossil fuels based on current technologies is far too harmful to our modern society. If it were easy, it would have been done by now, or we would be much further along in this effort. It is not, as some would say, “just a matter of will.” There are real and substantial impediments to our decarbonization goals that must be overcome before they are achieved. Also true, is that we do need to significantly decarbonize. The only questions are how, when, and at what cost? So, decarbonization is hard, if not impossible with today’s technology, but yet, it must be done. So, what do we do? I want to emphasize three points: 1. Fossil-based fuels are essential to our modern economy and we cannot just stop using them. It is far more complex than that. We must acknowledge that complexity. 2. Policies that set firm, unrealistic or unachievable deadlines to decarbonize do more harm than good because they result in the implementation of policies that are too costly, result in an unreliable energy supply, and may result in the failure to pursue better technologies and options. 3. Finally, we will provide some specific policy criteria that must be addressed if we are to both protect our standard of living and significantly reduce the amount of carbon we use. Before I discuss those issues, I want to discuss the state of climate science. Last year in its Sixth Annual Assessment Report on Climate Change, the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) narrowed the range of potential impacts from all studied emission scenarios and said that the most extreme emission scenario (RCP 8.5), which I will discuss in a bit more detail, is unlikely to happen given current trends in emissions and energy usage. The narrowing of the impacts means that the worst results that some have predicted are not going to happen no matter the emission scenarios. This is good news; our global emissions policies are working to curb greenhouse gases and the impacts will be less than previously predicted. The most likely emission scenarios are likely to result in a temperature increase in the 2-to-2.5-degree Celsius range, with 1.2 degrees already accounted for over the last century. Again, good news. The impacts of climate change that we are seeing are a mixed bag, but not as bad as some make it seem. Heatwaves (although only a two or three degree increase from expected temperature levels) have been detected, as has heavier precipitation, ecological and agricultural drought, and fire weather. What we are not seeing, beyond the range of expected natural variability, is increases in flooding, meteorological droughts, hydrological drought, tropical cyclones, winter storms, thunderstorms, tornadoes, hail, lightning, or extreme winds. I will note that the IPCC did find increases in peak flows in certain parts of the world, including the northeast of the United States, but they did not attribute that to anthropogenic climate change. Important to New Jersey is that there has been no increase in landed hurricanes and there is no pattern of any increase for the last century. Even Rutgers, in its Report of the 2019 Science and Technical Advisory Panel, found there to be no increase in the frequency of tropical storms, although there were minor increases in intensity and rainfall. Also encouraging is the history of our adaptation to changes in climate over the last century. We have learned that a prosperous society can develop the means to protect itself from natural disasters. Over the last 100 years there has been over a 90% decrease worldwide in deaths due to natural disasters and a 99.7% percent decline since its peak in 1931. At the same time, agricultural production has dramatically increased, and production is expected to continue to increase. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York has stated that it does not believe that extreme weather due to climate change will pose any threats to banks over the next 30 years. In fact, the New York Fed stated: “For policymakers, our findings suggest that potential transition risk from climate change warrants more attention than physical disaster risk.” Even under projected climate change scenarios, the IPCC has stated that GDP would not be impacted by more than a few points from projected significant increases in the global economy that will occur despite climate change. We can adapt. New studies have also indicated that sea level rise will not be nearly as serious at the turn of the century as some predicted only a few years ago. The IPCC in AR6 stated that the West Antarctic icesheet is not predicted to collapse, and we will thus not experience 5 feet of sea level rise by the turn of the century. One could easily argue that pandemics, war, disease, and poverty are far greater threats to humanity and should engender an equal, if not greater, public policy response. There has been an over emphasis on climate change being an immediate, existential threat necessitating urgent, and often economically detrimental policy responses. This narrative has been driven by the fact that climate scientists, for various reasons, have focused on only four emission scenarios for the purposes of modeling, which is the primary method used to predict the future impact of climate change. These scenarios do not necessarily represent the most likely outcomes but were chosen for reasons related to modeling needs. The most extreme scenario, representative concentration pathway 8.5 (RCP 8.5), was previously, and misleadingly, labeled as “business as usual” (BAU) even though it was never patterned on likely emissions or trends. The IPCC no longer refers to it as BAU and, as previously mentioned, it is considered unlikely. For instance, for RCP 8.5 to happen, the world would need to abandon all efforts to reduce carbon emissions and build over 30,000 new coal fired plants. Population would have to explode beyond projections, and we would have to burn more coal than supply allows. This is unrealistic. I mention these scenarios only to make the BPU aware, as policymakers, that you must be cognizant of what scenarios are being used when you are told certain impacts will happen. Facts matter, science matters, and we need to set policies based on realistic outcomes. But as I also said, the threats from climate change are real and serious, although not as severe as some initially predicted. And just because catastrophic impacts may not happen this century, we owe a debt to the future to be responsible and not leave future generations a world with challenges that we can help solve today. Thus, decarbonization is not a matter of if, but when and how. But solving the issue of carbon and climate is not easy. Energy, in all its various forms and uses, constitutes the fundamental building block of the modern economy. Having reliable, abundant, and affordable energy to run our factories, heat and cool our homes, and power our transportation sector has transformed our economy from an animal-powered agrarian economy to the most advanced economic system known to man. It has provided us with the power to create millions of jobs, elevate people out of poverty, and provide a standard of living never before accomplished in human history. It generates tax revenues that support the services needed by our residents. We take our energy system for granted; we merely flip a switch, and the lights turn on, we turn the ignition, and our cars power up, and we turn on the furnace and our homes and offices are heated. Since we stopped using whale blubber and trees as our primary sources of energy, our world has relied on cheap, abundant sources of fossil fuels, be it oil or natural gas. Fossil fuels have been the energy source that has powered our economy. I would venture to say that more people have risen from poverty due to the use of fossil fuels than for any other reason. Extreme poverty around the world has also dropped to historic lows. In fact, the big success of the last generation was that the world made rapid progress against the very worst poverty. The number of people in extreme poverty has fallen from nearly 1.9 billion in 1990 to about 650 million in 2018 even as the world’s population grew from around 2 billion at the start of the twentieth century to 8 billion today. This happened as economic growth reached more and more parts of the world, and that economic growth was fueled primarily from fossil fuels. I think it is also obvious to say that by taking people out of poverty, especially extreme poverty, we are saving many, many lives. If our goal is to help lift people from poverty and save lives, if we favor policies that benefit humankind, we need to recognize the role that energy, and fossil fuels, play. We continue to need fossil fuels today and will for many years to come. If the answer was so obvious and the solution was merely to stop their use, then we should stop today. It isn’t and we can’t. This Legislature or Congress has not banned fossil fuel use because the fact of the matter is there in no current realistic alternative available at the scale we need. No large, complex electrical supply system in the world currently relies on the intermittent energy sources of wind and solar for more than 30% of its power. There is a good reason for that. Intermittent power is unreliable and at levels above 25% becomes problematic from a reliability perspective and costly as a power source. New Jersey currently obtains just over 6% of its in-state energy for electric generation from renewables. Solar power provides most of this energy, as wind energy is largely still in development although we expect this industry to ramp up in the very near future. Thus, 94% of the electrical energy produced in New Jersey is from non-renewal sources with over 50% coming from natural gas and over 40% from nuclear. That means to achieve a carbon-free electric generation system we would have to shift natural gas to wind and solar over the next 30 years. Unless we can prolong our nuclear power plants well beyond 2050, and we are encouraged by recent proposals to do so, we would need to convert an additional 35% to 40%. These numbers do not account for the increase in electricity that will occur as a result of economic growth, data centers, and electrification policies. Heating is also dominated by carbon-based sources with over 75% of homes and businesses reliant on natural gas for heat and another 10% using oil. This significant investment in infrastructure cannot simply be turned off in favor of electric boilers and furnaces. There are issues of cost, effectiveness, practicality, and the potential need to double or triple our electricity resources to meet this new demand. Assuming these policies were even physically possible, the cost would be untenable. Using data developed by the Consumer Energy Alliance, the cost of all renewables in New Jersey would be about $115 billion (similar numbers are derived from national data and assumptions developed by Wood Mackenzie when extrapolated to New Jersey). This amounts to $12,900 per person, or $40,000 per state household. This does not account for the cost of heating conversions, not to mention transportation issues. We do recognize that the federal Inflation Reduction Act and the infrastructure bill will provide significant monies to the state for energy transition. Some of this money, appropriately, will support the growth of new technologies. But this money will not cover most costs and may not be available in the future. We should ensure that it is spent wisely, and that consumers’ pocketbooks are protected. Cost, however, may be the least of the problems with achieving a 100% renewable grid or anything remotely close. Evidence has shown that attaining a 25% market penetration for intermittent energy sources can be done relatively easy, “[b]eyond that point, operational and cost complexities progressively multiply in large part due to the intermittent nature of renewables.” (Deep Decarbonization requires deep pockets, Wood MacKenzie, June 2019) The German electricity grid, which relies more heavily on intermittent energy sources than any other major economy, has come close to blackouts and significant blackouts are expected to occur in the next few years. Worse, despite electricity prices that are more than 45% above the European average, Germany has not come close to realizing its carbon reduction goals and has been importing more of its energy. In fact, its energy policies have resulted in increased coal production and the burning of wood pellets as a fuel source. Another consequence of Germany’s energy policies is deindustrialization. Major industries have collapsed and moved elsewhere. This is a horrible result for the German economy and people and moving industry from one country to another does not lessen carbon emissions. The German path of unintended consequences should not be our path. The largest problem for RE100 is the intermittent nature of wind and solar itself. While this issue is generally understood, when applied to a large, complex power system, there is a need to ensure generation and demand alignment on a second-by-second basis. Experience in other systems with over 20% penetration of wind and solar has shown hourly power generations of between zero and 101%. These power variances, in the absence of battery storage (which currently does not exist at sufficient power capacities, is cost prohibitive and technologically impossible to meet demands beyond a few hours) result in overbuilding systems by 100% or more. This creates a hugely underutilized system when power is not being generated or unneeded and creates excess generation when in operation. At higher levels of penetration, challenges associated with intermittent power sources increase nonlinearly. These challenges can be better managed at levels significantly less than RE100. Transmission costs are one of these challenges. Even at RE50, there may be a need to increase long-distance, high-voltage transmission lines from 56% to 105%. Depending on the location of the energy sources, these numbers could increase. (Jenkins et al., “Getting to Zero Carbon Emissions in the Electric Power Sector,” Joule 2018). Siting and NIMBY considerations should not be ignored and may represent significant obstacles to building this infrastructure. The increased costs associated with higher levels of intermittent sources of renewable power will not be offset by the increasingly lower costs of producing energy from these sources. Any decreases in total power generation costs from wind and solar, the levelized cost of energy (LCOE), are significantly outweighed by the enhanced costs associated with incorporating intermittent renewable sources into the energy mix. These costs include not only the cost of building and operating the generation facilities, but also capacity payments, transmission and distribution upgrades, redundant supply, backup power, and other costs. In fact, there appears to be an inverse relationship between a decrease in the LCOE of wind and solar and an increase in cost to the ratepayer. (Wood MacKenzie) It is also very unlikely for current battery technology, based on lithium, to advance enough to solve this problem. Costs will come down and storage capacity will likely increase, but not to the breakthrough extent needed to make reliance on battery technology warranted. (Mills, “The ‘New Energy Economy’: an Exercise in Magical Thinking”) There are pathways to a net-zero approach, as shown by the group at Princeton University who produced the Net-Zero America report and is conducting ongoing research. This report assumes an investment of $2.5 trillion additionally for energy system upgrades over the next decade as well as substantial interstate transmission of renewable resources. It also assumes certain technological and societal changes. In reality, this approach is not practical or desirable. We can certainly have policy debates over how best to obtain a clean-energy or net-zero energy system by 2035 or 2050, but I think that is the wrong question. We now have much better scientific information about timescales and potential harm from climate change as presented by the IPCC in the past summer’s AR6 report. We know that the extreme emission scenarios are improbable, if not impossible, and we know that the impacts from all scenarios are not as great, in this century, then we initially thought when we set our goals and statutory mandates. We should capitalize on this scientific information. Our recommendation for the BPU when it updates its EMP is to pursue an aggressive decarbonization policy, but to do so in a manner that avoids unacceptable impacts and in a timescale that makes sense technologically and that is aligned with the latest science. We should not set artificial deadlines for actions because such deadlines often result in policies that ignore the tenets of affordability and reliability and may have unintended consequences. We see that in Germany today as it is increasing its use of coal, in California where another season of brownouts is expected, and in this country, generally, as the average price of gasoline in states like California is now $5 a gallon. Trying to push policies with artificial deadlines has caused this Administration to pursue an all-electrification policy and to seek to abandon natural gas as an energy source despite cost, impact to the grid, and questionable effectiveness. For instance, converting a modern fuel-efficient natural gas boiler to an electric one would actually increase carbon emissions because of the carbon footprint of the PJM grid. An all-electrification policy has resulted in a mandate to electrify heavy duty trucks before the technology is capable of handling heavy loads and is commercially available at affordable prices, and before the grid and infrastructure has the capacity to handle the loads. An all-electrification policy has caused us to adopt the California Advanced Clean Car II regulation that ignores the will of consumers, the impact on residents, and the practicality of implementation. We need a more holistic, practical response to our decarbonization needs. We must ensure that energy, in all its forms, remains affordable for both residents and businesses. We need to ensure our electrical grid is reliable and not subject to periodic blackouts or brownouts. Affordability and reliability need to be the guardrails of our decarbonization and energy policies. We recommend that New Jersey’s energy policy be founded on six foundational principles: • Decarbonization – Policies should strive to reduce carbon emissions as much and as quickly as practicable based on the best interests of the people living in this state and our economic needs. However, no decarbonization policy should be put in place until a full economic impact assessment, including a ratepayer analysis, is conducted. The economic impact analysis must also study the total costs to residents of these policies. Our policies should emphasize what we can readily achieve now in an affordable and reliable manner and delay other efforts until the technology or other cost-containment measures allow for such adoption. • Affordability and Reliability - Affordability means that low-income or average residents, as well as businesses, can afford to use the energy needed considering the other costs of living and doing business in New Jersey. While climate advocates, and the Energy Master Plan, will often use the term “least cost,” this does not denote affordability as “least cost” is in relation to other considered options. Reliability is essential for the functioning of an energy system and, thus, our economy and quality of life. Both affordability and reliability have been central tenets of New Jersey’s energy policies in the past but have recently been ignored for decarbonization policies. And in looking at cost and benefits, we should not use unsound policies such as the “total cost of carbon” that are based on erroneous assumptions and are crafted with an end result in mind. • Emphasis on Technology - Technological advances should be pursued as a key component of the state Energy Master Plan. While intermittent sources of energy need to be part of our energy future, renewables alone cannot replace carbon sources of fuel and still meet the goals of affordability and reliability. We will need new technologies, some of which may not even be known yet, in order to meet net-zero emissions goals. Technologies such as hydrogen, next generation or modular nuclear, renewable natural gas (RNG), wave energy, fusion, geothermal, microgrids, smart metering, energy efficiency, carbon capture, low carbon fuel standards, and others should be fully vetted and discussed in the Energy Master Plan. Everything should be on the table. I want to specifically reference next generation nuclear, be it modular or from some other advanced technology. The Energy Master Plan assumes our nuclear fleet will be operational through 2050, but it makes no provision or assumptions beyond that. This is unacceptable from a planning perspective. Much of the rest of the world is rediscovering carbon-free, nuclear energy. We need to engage in a serious policy discussion about its efficacy. • Sound Planning - No major changes in energy sources should be mandated until affordable and reliable alternatives are readily available to replace those sources, and the infrastructure is in place or planned to be in place when those sources are activated. The promotion of current electrification policy initiatives has not considered the needs of increased electrical generation and the transmission systems necessary to support them. We have been putting the cart before the horse. In fact, there are currently hundreds of solar projects that are ready to be built but which have been put on hold due to the lack of distribution lines to connect to the grid. The infrastructure challenge is also an issue for transportation electrification problems and will only be exacerbated by the need for data centers, economic growth, and other electrification policies. PJM has already sounded the alarm that we are retiring fossil fuel power sources faster than replacement power is being brought online. If this trend continues, grid reliability could be at stake. • Emphasis on Clean Energy Sources - We should continue to pursue established clean energy options, including wind, solar, and nuclear power. New Jersey already has substantial sources of clean energy, and more is rapidly coming on board. Our three remaining nuclear power plants provide roughly 40% of electric generation in the state. Our solar industry supplies another 6% and is growing. Our offshore wind industry has already been approved for 5200 MW with a total goal of 11,000 MW. Numerous proposals have already been submitted for the transmission projects to build out the offshore wind generation. Together, the continuation and expansion of these sources of power represent a substantial sum of our total electricity energy needs, although we recognize that those needs may significantly grow in the future depending on state and federal electrification policies. These industries should be supported, eliminating unnecessary regulatory burdens and establishing the process for their development in a cost and time effective manner. We need to solve our transmission and congestion problems if these industries are to reach their full potential. • Energy Security - Multiple energy options should be available to ensure security and the continuous availability of energy in varied forms, in sufficient quantities, and at affordable prices. It has been a tenet of energy policy, until recently, that an energy system provides for a range of energy options and sources so that consumers are protected from sharp price increases and disruption should one energy market be disrupted. We are seeing this play out in real time in Europe, which stopped fracking for natural gas and began to close nuclear power plants only to become dependent on natural gas from Russia. New Jersey’s energy consumption policies should embrace an “all of the above” approach to protect against market disruptions. In addition, beyond efforts to mitigate climate change by reducing carbon emissions, we recognize that extreme weather events have and always will be part of living in a coastal state. We also recognize, as we have stated above, that sea levels are rising, rainfall is getting more intense, and heatwaves are increasing. Therefore, we should emphasize resiliency efforts. We favor the use of sound science to predict future climate impacts and the protection of our citizens and infrastructure rather than a general policy of retreat which has not been given a sound public airing. Our policy recommendations are not rooted in artificial deadlines for actions. Rather, they are based on what is in the best overall interest of the citizens of New Jersey. We fully agree on the need to deeply decarbonize our economy and to achieve a net-zero, or lower, carbon policy but we believe science shows we do not have to rush to take actions that may preclude the use of more effective technologies. Many of the comments we made in the planning and drafting of the 2019 EMP are applicable today. We now have the benefit of evaluating how many of the policies put into place have worked and the lessons learned. We also have the benefit of updated science, evolving technologies, and the experiences of other states and nations who have led decarbonization efforts. NJBIA remains supportive of the goals of the EMP to meet the 80% carbon reduction mandates of the Global Warming Response Act. We are generally supportive of Governor Murphy’s goal of 100% clean energy by 2050, defined as 100% carbon neutral or net zero carbon emissions from the electric generation sector. However, we note that neither Executive Order 315 (Murphy) nor the Global Warming Response Act are legally binding and enforceable mandates to take any particular action. They are primarily aspirational and setting decarbonization goals for the state. It is good to have aspirations so long as we do not try to achieve them to our detriment. We believe there are two paths that can be taken in the updated EMP and ultimately in its implementation. One is prohibitively costly, will put our energy supplies at risk, and is not reasonably achievable. The other is based on considerations of cost, availability of resources, and realism. This pragmatic approach does not overemphasize intermittent sources of renewable energy, such as wind and solar. It allows for low carbon sources of power. It recognizes the continued need for natural gas and other forms of fossil fuels. And it is flexible and adaptable. We want to ensure that the updated EMP learns the lessons of the last five years and adjusts accordingly. We do want to acknowledge the policy decisions implemented in the last five years that have been successful and put on the right path. The goal of developing 11,000 megawatts of offshore wind power, while aggressive, has proven to be a motivation for action. New Jersey’s new wind port and manufacturing capacity development will allow us to be a regional, if not national, leader in job creation in the wind industry. While there have been challenges in standing up a new industry in a period of changing economic conditions, we appear to be on the right track with sound companies securing awards to develop wind farms off our coast. Together with innovative policies for transmission facilities, New Jersey is well positioned to lead the nation in energy production from offshore wind. Our solar industry also is on the right track having transitioned from its initial phases to a program that recognizes both the need for certainty and economic opportunity while putting in place constraints that will protect ratepayers. Policies that advance utility scale solar as well as incentives for brownfield and warehouse development will continue to drive expansion of this resource. We believe the EMP should consider the successful pursuit of a clean energy economy to mean one that achieves deep decarbonization of our energy sector in a manner that results in affordable, reliable, and abundant energy supplies. Our goals must be reasonably achievable. They need to be implemented with the support of the public and business sector, not implemented despite their objections. If the updated EMP does not contain policies which are supported by the public and business community, it will fail, and so will the efforts to address our carbon reduction efforts in a meaningful way. 100% Clean Energy: There are many ways to meet the 100% clean energy goals sought by the EMP, as well as the carbon reduction goals of Global Warming Response Act. Some have argued for a rigid policy involving a moratorium on natural gas facilities and hookups, a ban on all carbon fuels, and an electrical grid based solely on wind and solar resources. That strategy would fail because it is neither affordable nor feasible. It should be rejected. A more realistic approach would be to allow firm generation from both nuclear and natural gas resources. It should be flexible to allow for consideration of various technologies, some currently available, some not, such as carbon capture, low carbon fuels, next generation nuclear, mitigation, offsets, energy efficiency, and new technologies or strategies perhaps not yet foreseen. A Strategy with the Greatest Chance of Success: For all the reasons described above, the EMP should reject a requirement for all electricity to be produced from intermittent renewable energy sources. Rather, NJBIA believes that our carbon reduction goals can more likely be met, at affordable prices and in a reliable and feasible manner, if we limit intermittent renewable energy sources to a more manageable number, perhaps RE50, and provide the rest of the electric generation through firm sources such as nuclear power and natural gas. The best strategy is one that keeps all options on the table and is flexible enough to move in the right direction as technologies evolve or do not and as new facts and considerations are made known. We need to allow for low carbon alternatives to reduce our carbon output, as well as techniques such as carbon capture, mitigation, offsets, next generation nuclear, energy efficiency, and evolving and yet unknown technologies. We must not make policy decisions today, such as gas infrastructure or hookup bans, that lock us into a defined path. The best path goes in multiple directions. Rigid thinking will surely lead to poor decisions and ill-fated outcomes. Allowing for more options to solve our energy generation issues will result in a statistically greater chance of being successful in achieving our goals. We should have both short-term, implementable action items and longer-term aspirational goals. As the EMP is updated every three years, changes to strategies should be made based on current circumstances. Building Electrification: Twenty-nine percent of our greenhouse gases come from the building sector with approximately 14% from residential buildings, 10% from commercial, and 4% from industrial. While this sector needs to be addressed to meet our carbon reduction goals, the requirement that all buildings be electrified by 2050 ignores feasibility, cost, and public support. This is especially true to the extent the EMP is seeking retrofits of existing buildings to require the installation of electric heat pumps. Over 75% of our buildings are heated by natural gas, with another 10% heated with oil or propane. Converting this building stock to electric heat pumps, as proposed by the EMP, would be a herculean effort and may not even be possible from a workforce and equipment perspective, even in a 30-year horizon. It also ignores other options for heating buildings that maintain the billions of dollars of existing infrastructure. Development of renewable natural gas, hydrogen and other low carbon, or net carbon options are more practical, cost effective, and likely to be accepted by the public and business community. The bottom line is that a building electrical mandate is costly, impractical, and likely to fail while a flexible approach may achieve early emission reductions and offers long-term net reductions. There are also other options that should be explored such as geothermal and geo-exchange that is being successfully implemented at Princeton University. In the industrial sector, carbon capture may be an option for certain facilities as that technology advances. As with all energy policies, a top down, proscriptive approach should be rejected in favor of allowing technological development, experimentation, flexibility and options. The EMP should provide technical assistance and education to advance pragmatic decarbonization strategies. Aside from these practical issues, electrification of the building sector will significantly increase the amount of electricity needed. Some estimates are that generation may need to increase by 100% or more. And unlike electrification of the transportation sector, discussed below, electrification of buildings cannot be ameliorated by load balancing. Because of the need to heat buildings throughout the day, New Jersey will become a winter peaking state. This will cause generation and transmission issues which will also increase costs to consumers. The bottom line on building electrification is to allow flexibility and not to lock citizens or businesses into a particular technology or fuel choice. Technology will evolve, efficiency efforts can be enhanced, and consumers can be better educated. By some estimates, we can achieve 80% reduction in carbon emissions by focusing on emissions, not fuel choices. This applies to the building sector as well. Transportation: Forty-two percent of the greenhouse gas emissions in New Jersey are attributable to the transportation sector. This includes cars and light duty trucks, as well as mid- and heavy-duty vehicles, off-road vehicles and the ports. NJBIA is largely supportive of decarbonizing the transportation sector. Because the EMP had identified electrification of transportation as the sole policy for decarbonization, and because the emphasis on meeting artificial deadlines was driving policy, the Department of Environmental Protection adopted two far reaching regulations – the Advanced Clean Truck rule and the Advanced Clean Car II rule. Both rules mandate the adoption of zero emission vehicles (under current standards, this means EVs or limited battery powered hybrid vehicles). Both rules are costly. Both rules are impractical. Both rules should be replaced. The ACT rule mandates that all heavy-duty trucks be zero emission by 2035. This mandate was adopted despite the fact that these vehicles are often cost prohibitive, need extensive and expensive charging systems, will need their own power supply, and, in the case of heavier duty trucks, do not currently exist. These trucks often do not meet the needs of businesses due to charging times and distances traveled. The Department should repeal this rule and allow the market and technology to develop. Similarly, ACC II would mandate the sale of electric vehicles at rates beyond the capacity of the market to handle. When the rule takes effect in 2027, 43% of new car sales must be EVs. We are currently at 11% and there is no indication that sales will accelerate. In fact, EVs are piling up on dealer lots. Early adopters have largely bought EVs and others are rejecting them. Consumers are concerned about cost and practicality. They are concerned about range and the ability to charge their vehicle. There will be a wide range of people who will not be able to afford these vehicles, even with subsidies, making those in economic distress even more disadvantaged. The Department should repeal this mandate and allow the market to develop organically. We also do not support large subsidies of vehicle charging infrastructure that are paid for by electricity ratepayers. We do not support use of the Societal Benefit Charge to subsidize the purchase of vehicles. We do, however, support current efforts by the BPU and the Department of Environmental Protection to determine the need for a public subsidy of additional vehicle charging stations, the types of charging that is necessary, and reasonable methods to pay for it. But subsidies, for both charging stations and vehicles, cannot be a long-term answer. The market must be allowed to drive down costs for both. The public cannot be expected to continually subsidize these markets, especially vehicles, given their tremendous cost. In fact, given the current market penetration of electric vehicles, it can be argued that the technology has not been proven and it no longer needs to be subsidized. Subsidies for charging stations should only be allowed where there is a need that cannot be supplied by the market. While electric vehicles may very well be the wave of the future, they are not the only alternative to gasoline and diesel-powered internal combustion engines (ICE). The EMP should be supportive of that and not cut off other fuels such as hydrogen in fuel cell vehicles or low carbon fuels, such as compressed natural gas or renewable gas or diesel, especially in mid- or heavy-duty trucks and equipment. Distributed Energy and Transmission Upgrades: The provisions in the draft EMP on distributed energy and transmission raise more questions than answers. They foresee a transformation of the energy sector but do not explain how that will happen, how the system would operate, who would pay, how much it will cost, and how it would work in a regional electric grid system. While it is useful to envision a radically different energy future, significantly more research, technological change, and stakeholdering needs to be done before we can even decide if some of these changes are even a good idea. Conclusion: NJBIA is appreciative of the visionary aspects of the draft EMP, but we are concerned about the reality of ensuring affordable, abundant, and reliable energy. We are concerned that our economy continues to function, that businesses and their jobs remain in the State, and that residents can afford their electric bills. We recommend that the Administration use this EMP update process to implement short-term policies that are achievable and cost-effective now, and revisit more aspirational policies at the next EMP update as more information is gathered, conversations had, and facts become known. As we seek a clean energy economy, and a reduction in carbon output, we must ensure that all our energy supplies for all our needs remain affordable, abundant, and reliable.

Michael Egenton6/12/2024 8:47:20 AMJune 12, 2024 Via Email (board.secretary@bpu.nj.gov) Sherri L. Golden, Board Secretary New Jersey Board of Public Utilities 44 South Clinton Avenue, 1st Floor P.O. Box 350 Trenton, NJ 08625-0350 Re: Dkt. No. QO24020126 I/M/O The New Jersey Energy Master Plan Response to Request for Information Dear Secretary Golden: The New Jersey State Chamber of Commerce (“State Chamber”) is pleased to submit these comments and information in response to the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (“NJBPU”) Request for Information (“RFI”) regarding the Board’s inquiry on the 2024 update to the New Jersey Energy Master Plan (“EMP”). Since 1911, the New Jersey State Chamber of Commerce (“State Chamber”) has been recognized as the most respected, prestigious, bi-partisan and well-connected business association in New Jersey. With a broad-based membership ranging from the Fortune 500 companies to small proprietorships, representing every corner of the state and every industry, our members provide jobs for over a million people in New Jersey. We continue to work toward streamlining the regulatory process while striving to maintain the economic vitality of our members and the quality of life that makes New Jersey unique. Energy is the lifeblood of the economy. Reliable, safe, reasonably-priced and environmentally sound energy supply is essential for New Jersey’s economic progress and future. The State Chamber supports a balanced approach toward achieving the EMP goals that doesn’t depend or rely on one method, one technology, one fuel source, or overburden one segment of the economy or group of energy consumers. The reliability and resilience of our energy, along with our transportation systems, are key to our businesses and their operations in the State. We support continued efforts in strengthening, modernizing and updating our aging power grid. We recognize the need for such investments and like any other long-term solution, the management and financing of such investments require thoughtful but structured, more predictable deliberation. The New Jersey business community – both our industrial and commercial members – have worked diligently over the past several decades to make the necessary investments in both state-of-the-art air pollution control equipment and technology and energy efficiency. Control technologies such as selective catalytic reduction, scrubbers, carbon injection and baghouses have been installed on power plants and other industries resulting in a reduction in energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. The State Chamber will take the opportunity to highlight some of the specific energy sectors our organization believes must be “on the table” as the State of New Jersey prepares for the energy needs of the business community and residents in the outlying years: GRID INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS The State Chamber recognizes that electric transmission resources are essential to maintain the reliability, efficiency, and safety of the electric system. Transmission additions and upgrades are also elements of a balanced approach to meeting the needs of energy consumers. The ability to move power throughout the State and the region and to resolve congestion on the system that affects reliability and increases costs remains an important goal. New transmission construction also is an economic driver in its own right that will create jobs directly and through associated economic activity. Concerns about the current infrastructure grid have become front-and-center as a result of the push to electrify transportation and the building heating. The NJBPU knows all to well that as the use of electric cars have expanded, the need to have electricity transmitted and distributed to a wider range of locations in the state has increased substantially. Convenience store chains have expanded the construction of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, in some cases having over a dozen charging stations in one location. While the expansion of EVs is a good thing for our environment, it has been apparent that the local grids have become severely stressed to capacity requiring upgrades. The expansion of solar generation in New Jersey, particularly grid-supply solar projects, and the Governor’s agenda to expand more community solar projects, has caused interconnection delays in certain areas of the state. While there appear to be several causes to this problem, the lack of capacity along the transmission grid is one of these causes. In order to maintain grid reliability and increase grid capacity, New Jersey’s utilities, especially their electric distribution companies (EDCs), should continue making substantial investments in modernizing their grids to support this increased deployment and ensure the continued safe and reliable operation of their systems. The State Chamber encourages the BPU to work closely with the State’s utilities and other stakeholders to fully utilize the accelerated recovery mechanism for infrastructure investments that are in place, and identify alternative regulatory mechanisms, to incentivize the substantial investment in the utilities’ systems that will be necessary to meet the State’s clean energy goals. Additionally, we recognize the importance of modernizing the overall utility infrastructure, including upgrading and replacing leaking gas pipelines. NATURAL GAS In this time of transition to a reduced carbon footprint, New Jersey must continue to cultivate a natural-gas friendly environment. Natural gas is economically efficient and is a clean, safe, and reliable source of energy. Our natural gas infrastructure is vital for a strong economy and the reliability of the state’s power grid. Our utilities have made significant investments in improving old pipes to reduce the fugitive emission of natural gas, and are anxious to invest capital to enhance the infrastructure and reliability. That needs to be supported as a vital step towards achieving the goals of the EMP. When it comes to affordability, natural gas is a proven reliable fuel source that can actually lower costs for families and businesses -- it is a proven cost-effective resource that provides fuel diversity. Recognizing the availability of low-cost natural gas and the primacy of gas use in home heating, it would be imprudent to neglect the state’s gas delivery infrastructure. Additionally, natural gas is improving air quality in our state. Natural gas produces nearly a third less carbon dioxide than coal and almost half less than oil when burned. Natural gas also emits little to no sulfur and runs more efficiently than other fuels. In that regard, perhaps one of the biggest investments that both the private sector and our natural gas utilities have undertaken is the development of renewable natural gas (RNG). We have seen the recent development of two primary sources of RNG: food waste, and landfill gas. Regarding food waste, in 2020, Governor Murphy signed A-2371 requiring large food generators to source separate and recycle food waste. There has been significant development of RNG facilities that utilize food waste to manufacture clean, pipeline grade RNG. While we still await regulations implementing this law, we have seen facilities developed to develop food waste-to-RNG production. Similarly, the methane gases that result from decomposing waste in landfills has now become a source of pipeline grade RNG; there have been several projects that have been developed or are in the preliminary stages of development. In each case, the RNG reduces New Jersey’s carbon footprint and provides much needed natural gas. The State Chamber supports a green economy and reducing emissions. We believe the natural gas system can do that through continued investment in infrastructure, as well as investing in RNG and hydrogen. These alternative, low-to-zero carbon fuels will reduce emissions and will create jobs and an energy production industry in the state that doesn’t currently exist. The EMP should encourage the development of clean fuels in New Jersey. The State Chamber supports the State’s desire to achieve a clean energy future but cautions against policies that stand to harm the New Jersey economy without tangible environmental benefits. In particular, the State Chamber recommends that the State avoid pursuing widespread electrification to the exclusion of natural gas service. Nearly 75% of New Jerseyans rely on natural gas, and it represents a source of safe, affordable, and reliable energy for our businesses. Ratepayers, including businesses, have invested billions in the gas system over many decades, and this infrastructure can help to decarbonize buildings, and our economy by carrying clean fuels like renewable natural gas and hydrogen. Furthermore, unlike traditional natural gas, these clean fuels can (and already are) being produced here within the State, creating jobs and contributing to State’s economy. Calls to abandon this reliable energy source in favor of electric should be rejected. At present, our electric grid remains heavily reliant on carbon-emitting power generation, and requires significant transmission and distribution upgrades to better accommodate existing demand, not to mention the expected growth in electric demand owing to EV deployment and data center development. As power plants in New Jersey have shut down, the fact of the matter is that the State has now become more dependent on out-of-state generation, notably generation in Pennsylvania. The fact that Pennsylvania has rejected participation in the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) means that Pennsylvania power plants have a distinct price advantage over New Jersey power plants. As the Board is well aware, these power plants to the west still utilize coal as well as less controlled technologies. In contrast, while New Jersey’s fleet is cleaner, it has to compete with these out-of-state and dirtier power sources. Continued development of natural gas in New Jersey, particular in the areas of RNG and hydrogen, allow us to continue the safe and reliable provision of heat until the region, and indeed the United States, ultimately is able to convert to cleaner fuels. Working together, the electric and gas systems can continue to supply our State’s businesses with the energy they need, while they continue to improve in a way that reduces emissions. NUCLEAR Nuclear energy has been a powering source for the United States for over 60 years. Nuclear energy protects air quality by producing massive amounts of emission free, and in particular carbon-free electricity. Nuclear energy continues to generate energy when the wind isn’t blowing and the sun isn’t shining. New Jersey needs to support and continue to invest in our operating nuclear generating stations in Salem County (Salem and Hope Creek Generating Stations). SMALL MODULAR REACTORS (SMR) The emerging SMR market has gained momentum in recent years. SMRs are nuclear reactors that are “small” (300 megawatts of electrical power or less), can be largely assembled in a centralized facility, and would be installed in a modular fashion at power generation sites. Their lower initial capital investment, enhanced efficiency, reduced carbon emissions, versatility and scalability make them a valuable addition to the energy mix. Small nuclear reactors should be considered as a potential component in our pursuit of a renewable energy future. WIND The State Chamber recognizes that New Jersey has great offshore wind potential. We support offshore wind in New Jersey and the building of a new, clean energy industry that will spur significant economic growth in the Garden State. We need to increase renewable energy sources to meet our growing energy demands, and offshore wind is the most significant opportunity to do this on the East Coast while creating thousands of jobs and billions of dollars of economic activity. Transmission investment will also be crucial as the next step in delivering offshore wind energy to New Jersey demand centers and ensuring a reliable electric grid in New Jersey. We support the BPU in their current use of PJM’s State Agreement Approach for transmission development. As the longest serving member of the New Jersey Clean Air Council at the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, our association recognizes the environmental benefits of offshore wind energy in improving air quality and creating a clean energy future for our residents and businesses. SOLAR New Jersey is a leader in the solar industry, ranking eighth for total installed solar capacity nationwide. The State Chamber supports solar incentives like tax exemptions, net metering and the federal solar tax credit. Additionally, the State Chamber supports solar development at sites such as landfills, brownfields, warehouses, and government facilities that provide potential for larger installations, improve economies of scale, and that would return unproductive or underutilized sites to societal use. However, as outlined above, the continued success of New Jersey’s solar industry is predicated upon electric grid infrastructure that can support the expanded development of solar energy. ENERGY EFFICIENCY The State Chamber recognizes the importance of energy efficiency to achieving business and environmental goals. For businesses, using energy more efficiently saves money, reduces operating costs, increases competitiveness, and promotes job retention and creation. The State Chamber would welcome development of additional efficiency programs aimed at commercial and industrial customers. We also encourage State and local governments to lead by example and pursue efforts to reduce energy demand in government buildings. The EMP should remain aligned with the 2021 Clean Energy Act provisions around energy efficiency and continue to prioritize energy efficiency measures for both gas and electric customers and equipment in order to meet emission reduction targets. New Jersey should remain open to new end-use technologies, and support innovative utility energy-efficiency programs on both the gas and electric system, especially hybrid heat, networked geothermal, and demand response. New Jersey's utilities have realistic, achievable strategies to bring cost-effective emissions reductions to our state, including through energy efficiency, low- and zero-carbon fuels, hybrid heat, and the significant potential for carbon capture and other breakthroughs. New Jersey must continue to explore renewable natural gas, green hydrogen, hybrid heat, geothermal heat and wastewater-to-hydrogen projects. HYDROGEN and FUEL CELL TECHNOLOGY As New Jersey companies continue to focus on their decarbonization efforts and make progress toward achieving their emissions reduction commitments, the State should be open to incentivizing industry to transition parts of their operations to incorporate hydrogen and fuel cell technologies. The State Chamber encourages the State to continue their work with and support the research of New Jersey’s academic institutions to pursue making hydrogen and fuel cell technology another viable option to our energy demands. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) Artificial Intelligence (AI) has made significant strides in recent years, revolutionizing human-machine interactions and enabling complex tasks. However, as AI’s capabilities expand, so does its energy consumption. Demand for electricity is going to soar in the coming years, notably from data centers. If New Jersey is going to be a leader in AI, it will need data centers -- which require vast amounts of new sources of electricity. The future of AI hinges on finding sustainable solutions for its energy needs and the State will need to take a proactive approach by supporting more power generation amid growing demand. FISCAL IMPACT With all of these proposals, the State Chamber strongly encourages the NJBPU to analyze and review the cost to implement these projects and the impact – pro or con – to the State’s economy. The NJBPU needs to continue their due diligence process to safeguard the interests of ratepayers, making sure that we avoid any undue economic burdens. The State Chamber appreciates the opportunity to provide input and respectfully requests that our views be given proper consideration. Sincerely, Michael A.

Golden, RMC Secretary of the Board 44 South Clinton Ave., 1st Floor PO Box 350 Trenton, NJ 08625-0350 Phone: 609-292-1599 Email: board.secretary@bpu.nj.gov Reference: Docket No. QO24020126 Dear Secretary Golden: Our organization reviewed the Request for Information regarding the next iteration of the state’s Energy Master Plan and respectfully submit our comments and concerns. Our member community represents over 10,000 licensed contractors who understand the heating, ventilating, air conditioning and refrigeration needs of New Jersey residents. Our members are trusted to design, install, service, and repair HVAC equipment and systems of all sizes and complexities. We believe the experience and knowledge of our members has immeasurable value and will be critical to achieving the states decarbonization and clean energy goals in cost-effective manner. Please consider the following technical and logistical comments. If accepted, we believe would support a successful implementation of the next Energy Master Plan. • Mandated electrification is not a one-size-fits-all solution that will achieve New Jersey’s decarbonization goals, as each home and customer have different energy needs and configurations. Full electric conversions have complex requirements, often quite costly and time consuming. Further, a large percentage of system replacements are performed on an emergency basis, with little time to perform required upgrades, further impacting customers’ heating or cooling abilities. • Utility energy efficiency incentive programs are more important than ever to ensuring the customer seriously considers installing the high efficiency options that our members present to customers. Over the past few years, we have seen substantial increases in HVAC equipment costs and we expect more price increases from manufacturers in the coming years. We are often competing against other contractors who are proposing baseline efficiency equipment which is significantly cheaper and easier to install. We know this isn’t the right decision in the long run for that customer or for society. To have a fighting chance to counter that low-ball, baseline efficiency equipment proposal from other contractors, you must continue to have the utilities offer strong incentives and no-cost financing. • We are your front lines for decarbonization and are ready to promote the installation of electric heat pumps when it should save the customer money and the customer wants to install that equipment. However, many customers still want natural gas equipment and incentives must be preserved. Without strong incentives and 0% financing (preferably on-bill repayment) for high-efficiency natural gas equipment, it is more likely the customer will choose lower efficiency gas equipment. That won’t help the state reach their goals. • We strongly encourage the state to offer stronger incentives for hybrid heating solutions. Hybrid solutions allow customers to take advantage of heat pumps cost-effectively, as smaller heat pumps paired with existing gas heating systems do not require expensive upgrades to electric panels, ductwork, and added dehumidification equipment. Hybrid solutions also allow customers take advantage of the benefits of heat pumps at reasonable costs. o It is important to size heat pumps and other equipment in the home according to ACCA Manual D, J, & S protocols, ANSI Standards, and International Mechanical Code as required by New Jersey Building Code. o Heating capacity needs in New Jersey are significantly higher than air conditioning requirements. The existing electric panels and ductwork are typically sized to the cooling load and would require expensive upgrades for full heating load sized heat pumps. These upgrades can easily reach costs over $10,000 per home. Homes without air conditioning may not have the requisite space for condensing units. o Covering the entire heat load with an electric heat pump is typically more expensive for customers to operate in heating season as compared to a high-efficiency natural gas furnace. We thank you for taking the time to consider our comments. Sincerely, Stan Orzechowski, Vice President Bens ProServ President NJACCA NJACCA EMP Letter
Amy Goldsmith6/10/2024 5:41:41 PMFrom: Amy Goldsmith, NJ State Director, Clean Water Action To: Board of Public Utilities Secretary, Sherri L. Golden Re: Docket No. QO24020126 Energy Master Plan-2024 Update DATE: June 10, 2024 Together with Clean Water Action’s membership and over 75,000 email alert subscribers, we represent New Jersey residents seeking a squeaky clean energy path going forward that provides power to meet future needs, meets our ambitious climate goals, as well as protects our physical health and economic well-being as if our life depends on it as it does. Ultimately our comments reflect the following goals: 1. Reducing Energy Consumption and Emissions from the Transportation Sector; 2. Accelerating Deployment of Renewable Energy and Distributed Energy Resources; 3. Decarbonizing (phase out fossil fuels and nuclear) Energy Sector; 4. Modernizing New Jersey’s Energy System, and 5. Ensuring that communities (predominately Black, Brown, low income and with limited English proficiency) with a long history of being overburdened by multiple sources of pollution and co-pollutants in the energy/transportation sectors are given priority for truly green options first. Since the New Jersey 2019 Energy Master Plan (EMP) was first released, the scientific evidence has only become more alarming. The evidence and impacts of climate change have accelerated, been more expensive and destructive to our communities, businesses, ecology and quality of life. It therefore becomes even more imperative to: ? Make the EMP a Real Executable Plan with quantifiable goals and means to achieve them ? Place a Moratorium on New Fossil Fuel Projects (power plants, pipelines, etc.) ? Address Methane Leaks by allowing no new hookups, converting to heat pumps and electric appliances ? Ban or at Least Minimize the Use of Hydrogen to only truly green fuel cells ? Address the Harms from Air Pollution using a justice and health lens ? Redefine Clean Energy and Recognize the Dangers of False “Low Carbon” Solutions and Net-Zero Emissions ? Utilize the Total Costs of Climate Harms and Costs of Mitigation in Creating Policies ? Require GHG Regulations Aligned with State Targets and Timelines ? Ensure Legislative Action, Budget, Regulations and EMP are not in Conflict Clean Water Action: Page 2 Docket No. QO24020126 1. The EMP Must Become a Real Plan The 2019 EMP called for 100% clean energy by 2050 to be accomplished in 30 years but the document was mostly aspirational without interim benchmarks and executable actions. In light of the speeding up of the climate crisis and urgency to act, the State has moved up its target to 100% clean energy by 2035. We cannot afford a plan that speaks in generalities, the 2024 EMP must contain quantifiable goals and actions, resources to accomplish them, definitions of success, timely mechanisms for adjusting and accelerating action required in the future. 2. The EMP Must Call for a Moratorium on New Fossil Fuel Projects The EMP must include a moratorium on all new fossil fuel projects and other projects such as hydrogen hubs that will emit potent GHGs. The State cannot wean itself off fossil fuel if it keeps permitting more fossil fuel infrastructure to be constructed. In the end, they will become stranded assets over time – causing both an economic hardship on power producers and ratepayers. Scare resources would be better spent on creating more truly green renewable energy sources, energy efficiency and conservation. 3. The EMP Must Address the Climate Threat from Methane Gas Leaks Methane is responsible for about 30% of climate warming in the U.S. This is because methane captures 86 times more heat than CO2 over a 20-year period. The EMP must include specific policies and programs for reducing methane emissions that go beyond utility efforts to fix leaks – a costly effort that will take years and will still not fully address the problem. The EMP must include policies and plans to prevent use of new “alternative” fuels such as biogas (which is basically methane), stop building new gas infrastructure, end new gas hookups and rapidly accelerate the use of cold weather heat pumps and other electric appliances in new and existing buildings. 4. The EMP Must Ban or at Least Minimize the Production and Use of Hydrogen A major benefit claimed for hydrogen is that it decarbonizes the atmosphere. Hydrogen itself is actually an indirect GHG and will cause warming when emitted into the atmosphere. Hydrogen has 100 times the warming effect of CO2 over a ten-year period. Hydrogen is the smallest molecule and known to easily leak into the atmosphere. A hydrogen leak rate of 10% across the value chain making production and distribution of hydrogen three times worse in terms of climate impacts than methane. Methane’s 10-year global warming power is about 104 (close to hydrogen’s) but its life cycle leak rate is only 3% due to its larger molecular size. Hydrogen has the added problems of causing embrittlement, increasing the rate at which its infrastructure leaks. Clean Water Action: Page 3 Docket No. QO24020126 NJ should not allow the combusting any type of hydrogen in a power plant as it leads to formation of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions up to six times that of methane. NOx is a powerful GHG with a lifetime of about 10 years that captures almost 30 times the amount of heat as CO2. NOx is also an ozone precursor. The disproportionate health impacts of largely EJ communities living near power plants would heighten rates of heart disease, asthma, birth defects, premature death and more. Therefore, the only uses of hydrogen that should be permitted are for applications that only involve green hydrogen in fuel cells to produce electricity. No burning of hydrogen should be allowed. 5. The EMP Must Address the Harms from Air Pollution and Set Appropriate Goals While controlling or minimizing the emissions of harmful air pollutants is not the subject of the EMP, Clean Water Action calls on the NJBPU to include specific goals in the next version of the EMP for reducing harmful co-pollutants, especially in EJ communities, commensurate with the goals of reducing GHGs. 6. The EMP Must Redefine Clean Energy and Recognize the Dangers of False “Low Carbon” Solutions and the Target of Net-Zero Emissions The original goal of the 2019 EMP was 100% carbon neutral (net-zero) energy by 2050. Since then the State has accelerated its goal of 100% clean energy by 2035. However, the definition of “clean” includes dirty technologies such as burning carbon-based fuels like, ineffective market-based schemes such as carbon offsets, pollution credits and other pay to pollute schemes, garbage incineration, aging and new nuclear power plants, and more fossil fuel power projects with carbon capture and storage, an expensive technology that has never shown any commercial or practical viability. Any and all of these options disproportionately impact low-income communities and communities of color and block progress towards achieving the 100% renewable energy economy we urgently need. The EMP must clarify the definition of clean energy to exclude these dirty solutions and only allow the use of truly clean renewable energy technologies such as solar, wind, geothermal, heat pump and tidal, along with storage. The EMP must also recognize and address the danger of net-zero emissions technologies. NJ legislators are currently proposing bills that are based on the use of technologies that would purportedly achieve only net-zero emissions or even worse would use carbon-based fuels that only have lower GHG emissions than current fuels - not zero emissions. Removing methane and diesel pollutants (particularly Black Carbon, or soot) would result in a much faster and more potent global warming reduction than removal of CO2 which remains in the atmosphere for extended periods of time. Clean Water Action: Page 4 Docket No. QO24020126 We must reach net-zero more swiftly by committing to only using zero-emissions technologies, such as wind, solar, hydroelectric, heat pumps, tidal and storage, while protecting natural carbon sinks, mainly wetlands and forests. These technologies immediately reduce total atmospheric carbon. We must not use technologies such as RNG to achieve net-zero as they only make it more costly and take longer to convert to zero-emissions technologies. 7. The EMP Must Utilize the True and Total Costs of Climate Change Harms, Adaptation and the Costs of Mitigation in Creating Policies and Prescribing Actions The total life cycle economic, social and health costs of burning fossil fuels, as well as methane and hydrogen leakage (both however produced), including the costs from co-pollutant emissions, must be disclosed and utilized by the EMP in setting policies. This includes direct and indirect costs from the harms caused by these emissions as well as the cost to adapt to these emissions. The costs of harms and adaptation must be compared to the costs to mitigate/prevent these harms in order to fully understand the financial tradeoffs and make the best long term decisions for the State. As reported in the April edition of Nature, the costs from climate change damages outweigh mitigation costs by a factor of six. 8. The EMP Must Require GHG Regulations Aligned with State Targets As mentioned earlier the 2019 EMP set goals and called for regulation of all GHGs in order to achieve NJ’s GHG reduction targets. Five years later, despite creation of the NJ Protect Against Climate Threats (NJPACT) program, which implemented limited regulations of GHGs only from power plants, but not for our dirty peaker plants. In contrast, New York has plans to replace all its dirty peakers with storage and wind power. Additionally, NJ does not have a set of regulations for each industry sector (transportation, residential, commercial, industrial, waste management, natural gas and other non-energy sources) that can clearly demonstrate they will meet State GHG reduction targets (50% by 2030) and clean energy (100% by 2035). 9. The EMP Must Acknowledge and Address the Problems Caused by the Lack of a Real Plan Without a comprehensive Energy Master Plan with definitive timelines, and actions, the various branches of government are often at odds with one another and acting under pressure at cross purposes. Clean Water Action: Page 5 Docket No. QO24020126 Legislators are writing their own clean energy plan without consideration of EMP or GWRA. They are bowing to pressure from fossil fuel companies to pass legislation such as the Low Carbon Fuel Standard, the Emissions Reduction Innovation Act and the Renewable Natural Gas Act which mandate false solution type fuels (RNG, biogas, biomass-based diesel, fuels from carbon capture hydrogen, ethanol, etc.) for buildings and transportation. This will increase the cost of heating and transportation fuels, prolong the use of fossil fuels and fossil fuel infrastructure, increase deadly air pollution, create fraud prone carbon credit schemes, slow down the installation of true zero emissions technologies and increase GHG emissions regardless of the EMP targets. Under the current administration, the DEP has regulations that will prolong the use of dirty peaker plants and may approve permits for new fossil fuel projects (powerplants, pipelines, compressor stations etc.). The governor promotes the transition to EVs but is proposing to take away purchasing incentives (sales tax exemption) while proposing an annual tax on EVs. The NJDOT is moving forward on a major long-term highway expansion project with no consideration of the impact on climate change. This work of converting the Garden State to a green energy state is challenging enough; but when the legislative and executive branches work at cross purposes makes it almost impossible to move forward. This has to stop! A real energy master plan must have measurable timelines and benchmarks that meet the legal obligation of existing law and policy, sufficient resources to accomplish the stated goals, elimination of subsidies and give aways to fossil fuels and false solutions. The time to act is now! Thank you for your consideration of these comments.

Kathryn Riss6/7/2024 7:16:42 AMAs a participant in Piscataway's Community Solar program, I am happy to endorse solar energy in general and community solar in particular and request that they be featured in New Jersey's Energy Master plan! As a resident along the Raritan River having experienced three "100-year" floods over the past quarter century, I can personally vouch that the threat posed by global heating caused by reliance on fossil fuels is real, growing, and exceedingly dangerous. Please take the steps NOW that climate scientists have been warning us about for decades and now urgently demand. STOP ALL fossil fuel infrastructure projects in New Jersey and move ASAP to replace them with renewable energy sources: solar, wind, geothermal, hydro and nuclear. Save the future viability of our planet! 
John Ruhl6/6/2024 7:37:10 PMI wish to express my support for solar energy, wind energy, and other non-polluting forms of energy and request that it be a main component of the upcoming Master Energy Plan. I also request that the Master Energy Plan cease reliance on polluting fossil fuels that harm our health and communities. Nowhere is this more critical than New Jersey because NJ is the most densely populated state in the U.S.A. New Jersey needs to continue demonstrating to the rest of the nation that we are a leader in forward-thinking polices and actions. 
Raymond Valinoti6/6/2024 6:53:41 PMI support solar energy. Solar energy should be a main component of the upcoming Master Energy Plan. The Master Energy Plan should also stop relying on polluting fossil fuels that hurt our health and our communities. 
Brian Thompson6/6/2024 4:41:45 PMI strongly urge our master plan to accelerate solar power, along with current plans for wind energy. Unfortunately much of our power comes from natural gas, which contributes to global warming through extraction and leaks during transportation. Combined with new mega batteries, solar and wind are now balancing grids—period. But with a year of record high temps for the past year essentially hitting the 1.5C mark set in Paris 9 years ago, we simply cannot move fast enough.

Denise Lytle5/30/2024 6:13:10 PMI urge the strategic, equitable and cost-effective decarbonization of our top three most carbon emitting sectors, transportation, buildings and energy generation while simultaneously modernizing and updating their connective tissue, the grid. The updated EMP must build on the successes of the current 2019 EMP including the cost effective electrification of the building and transportation sectors powered by 100% clean renewable electricity. The impacts of indoor and outdoor air pollution are disproportionately borne by low-income households and communities of color. Reducing indoor and outdoor air pollution is particularly important to New Jersey because asthma is an ongoing public health challenge for the state. Over a third of New Jersey’s counties received a “D” grade or below for ground-level ozone by The American Lung Association. More than 17,600 deaths annually are directly linked to air pollution in New Jersey based on recent research from the Harvard School of Public Health. Environment New Jersey Research and Policy Center’s 2021 “Trouble in the Air” report found that the New York-Newark-Jersey City metro area, home to more than 19 million people, experienced 47 bad-air days in 2020. If the state does not prioritize overburdened communities, it will further exacerbate poverty and health disparities, and New Jersey will not reach its clean energy goals. In New Jersey, buildings powered by fossil fuels contribute more than four times more outdoor nitrogen oxides (a precursor to smog) than electricity generation. New Jersey has among the highest health burdens of any state from outdoor air pollution directly related to combustion of fossil fuels in buildings — with over 250 premature deaths and $2.8 billion in monetized health impacts annually, the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health found. The proposed EMP must prioritize the full decarbonization of our buildings and to simultaneously prepare our homes and buildings to be safe, healthy and efficient so that the energy savings do not leak out through the drafty windows. Replacing fossil fuel-burning equipment like gas furnaces, propane boilers, and more with highly efficient electric heat pumps will cut climate pollution from buildings. Electrifying our homes and business is more energy efficient - heat pumps are 3 to 5 times more energy efficient than a similar fossil fuel heating system. As fossil fuel costs continue to climb, New Jerseyans who make the switch from gas to highly efficient electric cold climate heat pumps can save anywhere from 4% to 41% on their annual energy bills, depending on utility territory In order to address the high cost of living here in NJ, the updated EMP must support lowering emissions and energy burdens by deeply subsidizing residential multi-family units’ transition to electric. Federal and state incentives, particularly federal incentives for low- and moderate-income New Jerseyans through the Inflation Reduction Act, help significantly offset costs for electrical upgrades and heat pumps. New Jersey has a lot of older housing stock, which tends to be more likely to suffer from “leakage”. Low- and moderate-income residents are more likely to live in older housing stock because rent prices tend to be lower, which increases their energy burdens due to excessive heating or cooling. The updated EMP must ensure effective Energy Efficiency and electrification programs, so that building decarbonization can be more easily addressed holistically. This is the promise of the whole home pilot program, which expands upon some existing programs, where their shortfalls are that they can’t address other problems in the home, like asbestos or a damaged roof. The whole home pilot program is the gold standard as a home’s concerns can be addressed all at once and retrofitted to the desire of the resident. However, there has been limited utilization of the program to date in Trenton. The EMP must ensure that residents can opt-in and make this program extremely affordable to the low- and moderate-income residents who opt in. Most importantly, this work must continue to prioritize LMI households, which are the most likely to reside in unhealthy and inefficient homes. We strongly urge the Board to administer the Comfort Partners Program so that the folks that need to be prioritized are, and no one is left behind regardless of their utility. Phasing out gas is critical to meeting decarbonization and public health objectives, and thus long-term planning must be deployed to align utilities’ goals with those decarbonization goals. Investments geared towards extending the longevity of gas pipeline networks must not be favored, instead the state should be focused on encouraging the deployment of clean energy, including wind, solar, and storage technologies, to achieve decarbonization. 100% clean electricity means cleaner air and improved public health, creation of good local union jobs, energy independence, and bold action on climate change. The Governor’s goals of 100% clean electricity by 2035 is ambitious and attainable, and the EMP must create the framework for our state to meet the goal while providing certainty for utilities, energy suppliers, and businesses. 100% clean electricity by 2035 must genuinely mean clean energy – which does not include trash incinerators or false energy solutions like blended hydrogen and renewable natural gas. The previous EMP noted that most of our clean energy would be met with offshore wind and solar. Offshore wind is a burgeoning industry, and with the Governor’s latest stated goal of 11,000 MW by 2040, and the latest offshore wind solicitation that just opened, we feel encouraged that we can meet the 100% goal while creating good-paying in-state jobs, solidifying New Jersey as the east coast leader in offshore wind, and producing local, clean energy to reduce air pollution and address climate change. Solar is a well-accepted and continually growing clean energy industry. A combination between grid-connected, residential and community solar will provide New Jerseyans with energy independence, clean energy opportunities, and cost savings to their wallet. Community solar allows renters and low-income residents to access clean energy while reducing their energy burdens. With energy year 2025 promising at least 500 MW of community solar energy, nearly 4 times the capacity as previous years, residents will have more access than ever to this vital program. With the current goals of 2,000 MW by 2030, we encourage the Board to accelerate developing strong incentive structures for energy storage in the state, and consider marrying that with small-scale, residential incentives so that households that may lose power can also take advantage of energy storage. Given that offshore wind and solar are not demand-response energy types, energy storage for clean, renewable energy will allow New Jerseyans to continue drawing clean energy even when the sun isn’t shining and the wind isn’t blowing. Transportation is the largest source of carbon emissions in the state – representing 38% of emissions in 2021. Decarbonizing this sector is essential to meeting our climate goals, reducing air pollution, and protecting the health of all New Jerseyans, especially members of environmental justice communities that are adjacent to and most impacted by highways and vehicular pollution. The 2019 EMP overarchingly supports: decarbonize through rapid electrification, reduce vehicle miles traveled, reduce reliance on single passenger vehicles, and exploration of alternatives for hard-to-electrify transportation like aviation. We agree that these are the right tactics, however funding and educational campaigns need to ramp up in order to make these transitions such as adopting electric vehicles, and cultural shifts such as using public transit a reality. We urge the Board to move forward the Medium- and Heavy Duty Straw Proposal, which is significantly delayed so that utilities can employ strategic plans on charging infrastructure across the state with the purpose of transitioning and powering one of our most polluting sources of emissions in our most polluting sector, our trucks. Finalizing the Straw proposal will better enable entities like New Jersey Transit and school districts–many of whom have received federal grant money towards clean school buses–to speed the efficient, cost-effective integration of electric vehicles into their fleets. The state needs significant and consistent funding to electrify fleets and medium- and heavy-duty vehicles, establishment of sufficient charging infrastructure, and enhance public transit in a timely manner. The recent passing of the punitive $250 per year registration fee, which is scheduled to increase to $290 per year over the next few years, moves us in the wrong direction and discourages the transition to electric vehicles in the near term.

Alejandro Meseguer5/22/2024 8:15:49 PMPlease advocate for clean renewable energy to transition away from fossil fuels. Heat pumps are here now and mature enough to heat well below freezing temperatues. Thank you NJBPU for your work in this EMP. 
Douglas Wong5/22/2024 3:50:02 PMAs a heating and AC company in NJ. We replaced existing systems with heat pumps for electric heated home and Hybrid for gas/electric homes. Converting gas heat home to HP only do not make economic sense because you mostly likely have to upgrade to a 200 amp panel and upgrade wire to furnace with 220v, 30-40 amp for electric backup heat to the air handler. Ductwork most likely need to be upgrade as well. Almost all our job includes 0% financing and large rebates, without both will reduce our conversion by at least 50%. If we want our residences in NJ continue upgrading with high efficiency furnaces, AC and heat pumps, keeping the 0% financing and attractive rebates are a must. Thank you. 
Ellen Pedersen5/21/2024 1:10:45 PMTriennium programs must maximize electrification and protect utility bills for low- and moderate-income (LMI) households in the short- and long-term. Ratepayer money must not be used to incentivize further reliance on and the longevity of dirty fossil gas in NJ. I oppose all gas equipment incentives. Building decarbonization programs should incentivize full, not hybrid end-use electrification. Utilities must provide a clear path through the programs to make homes electric- and upgrade-ready. Utilities must seek out and take full advantage of IRA funds, however these must be additive to the work and expand program offerings, not shrink the investment from the utilities in Triennium 2 programs. Geothermal can only go forward with with strong guardrails like controlled costs and no fossil-fuel supplements.  
David Temple5/18/2024 8:20:54 AMPlease do all you can to use only clean energy. We need to get away from the use of gas, coal, and oil. I am 100% in on using solar and wind power to provide clean energy.

John Belo5/16/2024 10:03:18 AMI would like to know when the HEEHRA will be up and running, I’ve been in contact with several people in the administration, and they stated that the program would be effective in December 2023, no later than January 2024. Personally I need to upgrade my heating/cooling system and would like to go to a more effective and clean system, but without knowing when the program would be effective, I can’t make any decisions, or because the system has completely failed(thankfully we made through the winter) I may have to go with a traditional system due to price constraints. Any guidance that you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Alejandro Meseguer4/24/2024 1:22:41 PMThe value of offshore wind "Offshore wind has a compelling and distinctive value proposition that complements other clean resources. It supports grid reliability and resource diversity, with average capacity factors higher than those typical of onshore wind and solar PV projects, and a complementary production profile particularly suited to meet winter load growth (acute in colder climates, where electrification will drive higher winter peaks). Offshore wind helps relieve siting pressure for land-based clean power and transmission infrastructure, connecting directly to coastal population centers with high electricity demand. It can also drive economic development, providing sustainable opportunities for jobs, manufacturing, and revitalized legacy maritime and grid infrastructure. The sector also has long-term cost reduction potential as the industry scales in the U.S." --- U.S. Department of EnergyLiftoff-Report-Offshore-Wind-Web2

Decarbonizing to tackle the climate crisis while meeting electricity load growth will require fast deployment of clean sources. Offshore wind promises to help meet demand growth by providing near-term deployment at scale, particularly for land-constrained coastal demand centers that have limited clean electricity alternatives and might otherwise need to add new natural gas or delay fossil fuel retirement."

Margaret Bagley3/25/2024 7:19:00 PMAs a lifetime resident of NJ I vehemently oppose the OSW plan for NJ's energy future. This plan is invasive and destructive to our most valued resource, our shore and coastline. Referring to these turbines as "clean" and "green" are merely buzz words which convince proponents that they are in fact all of that. BOEM themselves have been quoted in the EIS for Ocean Wind 1, now cancelled, will have no overall collective impact on global warming as a result of the OSW projects. These 1000 foot behemoths will serve as a constant reminder that this department was more motivated by funding then to preserve the necessary ecosystem that is far more valuable than a few unreliable gigawatts which based on the onshore landing diagrams will be supporting NY & PA far more than NJ. Harming our fisheries and marine life is evident whether some choose to admit it or not. Common sense and anyone with a conscience will tell you that animals flee harm and that's what simply is happening. I would like to hear from the BPU what advances and consideration towards nuclear energy you have taken, which is a "clean" source of energy that is far more reliable than OSW, and would also like to hear the BPU's Plan B when the OSW plan fails and inevitably blackouts and brownouts occur. This should not be the only alternative to ramp down fossil fuel usage which natural gas was considered "clean" at it's inception. Please take the time to do the right thing by NJ residents and ratepayers. The BPU has an opportunity to be honest and look towards a much more affordable, reliable and less destructive energy source that won't further industrialize NJ. Pushing through an "agenda" because the gauntlet has been thrown and a "timeline" has been established is no way to responsibly solve our energy needs. It will go down as lots of money wasted for a fast tracked program that is short-sighted for our future needs unless you do the right thing and halt OSW construction.
