Energy Master Plan Looks to 2020
Gov. Jon S. Corzine launched the current EMP process with the aim of planning for New Jersey's energy needs through 2020. During plan development, more than 500 people have offered input and ideas or monitored the process by attending meetings or joining the EMP listserv.
Public hearings were held in July. The final EMP was released on October 22, 2008.

1987 Law Requires New Jersey to Formulate the EMP
New Jersey is statutorily (EMP statute) required to do an EMP every 10 years and to do updates every three years. The most recent Energy Master Plan was published in 1991 and updated in 1995 in response to the introduction of wholesale competitive electricity markets in the region. A 1987 amendment to the EMP law (itself enacted in '77) mandated a standing committee representing all relevant state policymaking agencies.
