Governor Phil Murphy wants 100 percent of New Jersey’s power to come from clean energy by 2050. That’s an ambitious goal, given that only 4 percent of our current energy comes from sources such as solar or wind.

In order to help determine the best ways to meet that target and to establish a realistic estimate of what it will cost, NJ Spotlight brought together experts, advocates, and state officials on February 23 for its roundtable on renewable energy.
