One of the problems with this aggressive goal is that the
Christie administration is not likely to back it
If legislators get their way, New Jersey will rely on solar
panels, wind turbines, and other forms of clean energy to provide most of the
electricity the state needs by 2050.
That’s the goal of a bill making its way through the
Legislature, which would require 80 percent of the electricity used in the
state to come from renewable energy, an aggressive target aimed at helping New
Jersey sharply curb emissions of the greenhouse gases that contribute to global
warming.
