New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy said the state will procure the remainder of its 7,500-MW offshore wind goal in five solicitations through 2028.

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy outlined how the state will meet its goal of 100% “clean energy” and an 80% reduction in greenhouse gas by 2050.

New Jersey doubled its offshore wind goal, committing to 7,500 MW of generation by 2035 in hopes of being the “nexus of the global offshore wind industry.”

The New Jersey Board of Public Utilities approved zero-emission credits totaling $300 million for the Hope Creek and Salem nuclear plants.
