Christine Guhl-Sadovy, president of the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities, has a lot to do and little time to do it in.

Facing an expected surge in energy demand, New Jersey’s Board of Public Utilities outlined a draft EMP that would continue the state’s existing, vigorous electrification strategy.

Facing a 40% hike in electricity demand by 2030, New Jersey needs to rapidly craft a plan on how to boost generation and develop its transmission and distribution system, speakers at a conference on the state’s energy future said.

A more than 40% decline in New Jersey solar installation capacity from 2023 to 2024 has added to the debate over how to retool the state’s net-metering system to help advance the solar sector.

The Members Committee was sharply divided on an agreement in principle between PJM and Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro to institute a cap and floor on capacity prices for the 2026/27 Base Residual Auction and the following auction.
