Wednesday, December 5, 2018 | 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm. NJBPU Public Meetings on Development of the State’s Offshore Wind Strategic Plan. More information here.

The New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU) is holding a series of three public meetings to gather input from stakeholders on the Offshore Wind Strategic Plan (OWSP) in response to New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy’s Executive Order No. 8, which directs the NJBPU to fully implement the Offshore Wind Economic Development Act (OWEDA) and begin the process of moving the State toward the Governor’s goals of 3,500 megawatts (MWs) of offshore wind energy generation by 2030.
It is anticipated that the development of this abundant, renewable, and sustainable energy source will yield substantial environmental and economic benefits to the State of New Jersey.The meetings will provide an opportunity for the public, agencies, elected officials, and all interested parties to learn about the OWSP development process and provide valuable input that will be used by the NJBPU in its decision-making as the Plan is developed. Meeting topics will include an overview of the OWSP development process, its goals and objectives, and its potential benefits for New Jersey’s environment and economy, as well as a the various ways stakeholders can actively participate in the process.
