NJ RENEWABLE ELECTRIC
PRICES
The table summarizes 100% renewable electricity available 7/7/2017 in NJ to JCP&L residential customers in zipcode 07748 and church in zipcode 07733. Customers of other electric companies (Atlantic Electric, PSE&G,…) should use the suppliers’ websites to determine their own pricing and savngs.
This table is a snapshot substitute for a former US Dept of Energy site which listed suppliers of renewable electricity. In early 2017, this US DOE website was removed and not replaced. No other complete list of renewable suppliers has been located (at bottom of this page are links to some suppliers of renewable electricity).
Prices are in cents per kilowatt-hours, and should be compared to JCP&L “Price to Compare”: 8.85 cents per kwh for residences and 8.4 c/kwh for church (as of 6/12/2017 - probably a fixed tariff for next 12 months). Price to Compare is explained in the “Messages” section of the JCP&L bill. The lowest cost supplier in the following list will save a residential customer 1.06 cents/kwh (12%), save a church about 0.76 cents/kwh (9%), and release no greenhouse gases, in order to slow global warming.
