PSEG Installing 30 MW of Solar

Public Service Enterprise Group has three upcoming solar installations that will produce 30 Megawatts (MW) of electricity. The projects are located in New Jersey, Ohio, and Florida. PSEG will use approximately 380,000 First Solar Inc's thin-film photovoltaic solar panels for all installations. The total cost of the project is $100 million USD.

The solar projects are:

-Mars Solar Garden, New Jersey. A 2.2 MW solar installation will power the Mars Snackfood U.S. headquarters. Mars Snackfood has already contracted to purchase the electricity.

-15 MW solar farm in Jacksonville Florida. JEA has contracted the electricity of the system and the renewable energy credits it will produce.

-12 MW solar farm in Wyandot, Ohio. AEP has contracted the electricity from the system and the renewable energy credits.

PSEG is helping states and local utility companies meet the state renewable energy requirements. PSEG is currently working with New Jersey to develop a 350 MW wind farm, a solar loan program, and a 80 MW solar program that installs solar panels to utility poles. Through these programs and many more in the future, PSEG hopes to push American into a new, renewable economy.
