Our energy choices have never had greater consequences for our world — and our
children who will inherit it. Our choices can make a difference — and leave the
world a cleaner, healthier place.
Today’s better energy choices — and tomorrow’s — must continue to be about energy
that is safe, reliable and economic. But another dimension is just as critical: energy
that is clean.
At PSEG, we are strongly committed to the environment and dedicated to building
a greener, low-carbon future. We are working to develop new ways to help society
meet the challenge of climate change, an issue with the power to transform both
our company and industry.
Climate change is far from only being a challenge. At PSEG, we see it as an opportunity
to apply the enormous capacity of our nation to innovate, invent and chart a new path
of sustainable growth — and create plenty of good, locally based jobs.
We believe a comprehensive, multi-dimensional strategy can reduce greenhouse
gases. At PSEG, we are pursuing workable solutions along three main lines: fi rst, with
conservation through energy-effi ciency improvements; second, with the development
of renewable energy such as solar, wind and biomass; and third, with clean central
station power plants using proven nuclear or other advanced clean technologies.
It’s not just our industry that has a stake in this battle. We all do. And government
has a key role, too. That’s why we are making our voices heard by aggressively
supporting public policy in New Jersey and the nation to achieve meaningful
reductions in greenhouse gases. We are calling for action now.
