Team 14: Saving Solar

Abstract

In 2018, New Jersey passed the Clean Energy Act which calls for 50% clean energy by 2030 and 100% by 2050. PSE&G, New Jersey’s largest utility company is working to meet this goal.

While solar generated electricity is a step towards clean energy, it is not sustainable without energy storage.

We have partnered with PSE&G’s Solar 4 All® team to manage energy storage. SavingSolar sizes energy storage systems at the residential level to maximize their impact at the grid level thus helping PSE&G meet the goals set by the Clean Energy Act.
