Steve Sweeney Unveils Plan to Break PJM’s Grip on Ratepayers in New Jersey - Cozzy Energy Solutions
New Jersey Governorial Candidate Steve Sweeney Unveils Plan to Break PJM's Grip on Ratepayers Steve Sweeney, a Democratic gubernatorial candidate in New Jersey, has announced that his administration would take legal action against PJM Interconnection, LLC, the regional transmission organization responsible for coordinating wholesale electricity movement across 13 states. This move aims to protect residents' interests and ensure fair energy practices. Sweeney emphasized the importance of safeguarding New Jersey's energy future and addressing long-standing concerns over PJM's operational practices and policies. He stated his commitment to upholding residents' rights, ensuring access to affordable, reliable, and clean energy. "We must take a definitive stand against unfair practices that burden consumers and hinder our state's energy goals," he said. The lawsuit will focus on key issues including allegations of market manipulation, lack of transparency in pricing mechanisms, and the impact of PJM's operations on New Jersey's ability to meet renewable energy targets. Sweeney believes that PJM has not acted in its member states' best interest and has placed undue financial stress on consumers and local utility companies. Sweeney sees this as an opportunity to build a more competitive market that benefits all consumers. "New Jerseyans deserve a robust energy market that reflects their needs and priorities, and we must hold organizations like PJM accountable," he continued. A Sweeney administration would work closely with other PJM states to advocate for change within the organization. The goal is to explore remedies for alleged violations and ensure a fairer marketplace moving forward. Ultimately, this plan aims to build a sustainable and equitable energy future that families can afford.
