Statement from Ron Morano, Executive Director of Affordable Energy for New Jersey, on State of the State Address:

“While it’s important to invest in our energy systems, today’s speech continues a long pattern of failing to address three essential questions for energy policy:

1. Is this feasible?
2. Will it be more reliable?
3. What will it cost?

We encourage the state to assess the feasibility, reliability, and most importantly the cost of its energy policies, including the Energy Master Plan, and share that information with the public. Now is the time to make smart, affordable energy investments that will grow our economy, not rely on unproven technologies that could leave our residents and businesses worse off.”
