New Jersey Solar Transition

In April 2006, the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities approved an expanded Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) which calls for 20% Class I Renewables by 2020 and includes a minimum requirement of 2% New Jersey solar.

In May 2006, an RPS Transition Working Group was formed to consider various financing models to support the continued growth and expansion of New Jersey’s solar market. The principles and models being considered by the RPS Transition Working Group were originally outlined in a series of White Papers.

The Board has scheduled meetings in 2012 to review the EDC SREC program recommendations:

  1. Review of the solar data for the current EDC SREC programs - this is currently being developed by Rutgers CEEEP with data input from the EDCs.
  2. Draft SACP schedule.
  3. SA EDC SREC petition.
  4. Options for addessing the increased supply
  5. SREC Pipeline Transparancy Proposal

In January 2012, a Request for Comments was issued and the following responses were received.

Clean Energy Committees and Working Groups are open to public participation and input from any interested party. Click here if you would like to receive regular communications via listserv regarding solar transition meeting dates, agendas and handouts.
