Solar 4 All Program
The PSE&G Solar 4 All® program is developing 158 megawatts (MW) of universal solar capacity that will generate enough energy to power about 25,000 New Jersey homes. These facilities are directly connected to the grid, which provides many benefits to all PSE&G electric customers and New Jersey residents:
- The Solar 4 All program is concentrating on turning landfills and brownfields green by building solar farms on these otherwise unusable sites.
- The program is helping to create jobs and drive economic development by making New Jersey a leading state for solar power.
- The power generated by Solar 4 All projects is used by all PSE&G electric customers.
- Solar 4 All provides New Jersey with clean, carbon-free renewable energy, replacing some traditional fossil fuel electric generation.
- The value from the sale of the solar electricity and capacity into the wholesale electric market, the solar renewable energy certificates (SRECs) that it generates and the federal investment tax credits are used to help offset the cost of the program.
Turning a Landfill into a Solar Farm
The recently completed ILR Landfill Solar Farm is the latest example of how PSE&G's Solar 4 All® program, is using landfills and brownfields to increase the amount of universal solar in NJ.
Solar + Storage = Reliable, Resilient Energy
PSE&G and the Borough of Pennington collaborated on a new solar storage project that will help keep the town’s Public Works building running should an extended power outage occur.
Solar Powering Wastewater Treatment Plant
PSE&G’s new solar storage system will keep the Caldwell Wastewater Treatment Plant running, ensuring untreated wastewater stays out of local waterways.
Solar 4 All is a 158 megawatt-dc (MW-dc) program that utilizes rooftops, parking lots, utility poles and landfills/brownfields for large-scale, grid connected solar projects.
