Bill overview
This bill establishes a natural gas power plant procurement program within the Board of Public Utilities (BPU). The BPU will issue a request for interest in constructing new natural gas power plants capable of generating at least 1,100 megawatts. Interested entities must submit detailed information about their proposed projects, including costs, financing, and potential environmental impacts. The program aims to increase New Jersey’s energy supply and reliability through the development of qualified natural gas power plants, with a focus on securing NGECs to support the state’s energy needs.
