The state Board of Public Utilities has issued a request for information seeking to better understand if new nuclear power generation could help New Jersey reach its goals for affordable clean energy while also helping meet the state’s need for increased power supply.

The May 5 request, addressed to “all interested parties and members of the public,” grows out of the effort to update the New Jersey energy master plan in an environment where supply prices for electricity are soaring due in part to an imbalance between rapidly rising demand and lagging electricity generation.
