This is a list of electricity-generating power stations in the U.S. state of New Jersey, sorted by type and name. In 2020, New Jersey had a total summer capacity of 17,424 MW through all of its power plants, and a net generation of 61,106 GWh.[2] The corresponding electrical energy generation mix was 47.8% natural gas, 45.8% nuclear, 2.5% solar, 1.7% coal, 1.2% biomass, 1% non-biogenic waste, and 0.1% hydroelectric & wind.[1]

Sources of New Jersey utility-scale electricity generation:
full-year 2021[1]

  Coal (1.7%)
  Natural Gas (47.8%)
  Hydro & Wind (0.1%)
  Nuclear (45.8%)
  Biomass (1.2%)
  Solar (2.5%)
  Petroleum (0.1%)
  Non-Biogenic Waste (1.0%)

New Jersey's renewable portfolio standard was updated in 2018 to require that 21% of electricity be from renewable sources by 2021, 35% by 2025, and 50% by 2030.[3] About 75% of renewable generation came from small- and large-scale solar photovoltaics (PV) that year.[4] Small-scale solar, which includes customer-owned PV panels, delivered an additional net 2,693 GWh of energy to the state's electrical grid during 2021. This was nearly twice the generation of New Jersey's utility-scale PV plants.[1]

Nuclear power stations


There are two nuclear power stations in New Jersey both operated by PSEG Nuclear.[5] The Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station in Lacey Township owned and operated by Oyster Creek Environmental Protection permanently ceased operations on September 17, 2018.
