Community Forum & People's Hearing on Energy Efficiency to be Hosted by Sierra Club
State Senator Christopher "Kip" Bateman, (R) from New Jersey's 16th Legislative District, will moderate a public hearing to address the urgent need for an Energy Efficiency Resource Standard for our state. This energy savings standard is designed to spur investment in energy efficiency, lower customer costs, and reduce pollution. Twenty-six other states have already created energy efficiency standards that are cutting people's monthly bills, reducing harmful carbon emissions and creating jobs, but NJ's Board of Public Utilities has not finalized a standard they were authorized to create more than six years ago.The public is invited to attend with questions and comments, and all testimony will be forwarded to the Board of Public Utilities for its consideration.
