Public Service Electric and Gas Company (PSE&G) has started the first phase of construction at its Yardville solar farm in Hamilton Township, New Jersey.

The 4.4MW facility is one of the four solar farms the utility is developing as part of its $515m ‘Solar 4 All’ programme.  Through the programme PSE&G expects to develop more than 20 solar projects, representing an investment of more than $140m that will create almost 300 jobs and provide New Jersey with 30MW of solar power.
Al Matos, vice president of PSE&G said, ‘This is one of many projects that PSE&G is developing as we invest more than $750m to increase access to solar energy in New Jersey.
‘Clean energy investments are key to a sustainable future. In addition to being good for the environment, these investments are creating jobs and helping New Jersey to build a new, green sector that will strengthen the skills of the workforce and our state’s ability to compete globally.’
The Yardville project will comprise close to 16,000 solar panels and will produce enough electricity to power about 720 average-size homes.
The 20 planned projects under development will produce enough energy to power about 4,900 homes and eliminate 23,000 metric tones of carbon dioxide emissions.
