Difficult to Grow a Small Business in NJ? It Just Got Harder!
While you did everything that you could to keep your business operating during the pandemic, Trenton’s focus was elsewhere. Politicians got busy fast tracking their new energy taxes.
Your monthly bills will be higher, access to clean and affordable natural gas will be limited and the future of development will be controlled by bureaucrats in Trenton, not business owners or even a local zoning board. If this troubles you, and it should, we invite you to join our cause and stand up for small businesses.
Affordable Energy for New Jersey (AENJ) is a coalition that brings together voices from all corners of our state – local leaders, business owners, organized labor, rural communities and more – who are taking a hard look at New Jersey’s Energy Master Plan and advocating for actionable, fact-driven energy policy that emphasizes keeping costs low for our residents and businesses.
What Can You Do Now?
New Jersey’s plan to make our state’s energy system 100% electric will cost ratepayers billions to convert their homes and business to electric-only systems. Even worse, electric-only systems will increase our energy costs by eliminating other sources such as clean natural gas and leave our infrastructure more vulnerable as a single-mode system.
Sign up for further information from AENJ and encourage others to do the same. Once we build our base, we can take action.

Welcome To Affordable Energy For New Jersey
Thank you for wanting to learn more about New Jersey’s misguided Energy Master Plan (EMP). Keep in mind that this Is more than just a dangerous proposal for our state. It was codified in February of 2020 by the Murphy Administration, which actively began implementing key components of the plan almost a year before. And, despite strong concerns, it now has been fast-tracked.
Affordable Energy for New Jersey (AENJ) is a coalition that brings together voices from all corners of our state – local leaders, business owners, organized labor, rural communities and more – who believe that the state’s proposed Energy Master Plan will have devastating effects on our economy and on the reliability of energy for our families and businesses.
Together, we are taking a hard look at New Jersey’s Energy Master Plan and advocating for actionable, fact-driven energy policy that emphasizes keeping costs low for our residents and businesses.
Each of us strongly support reducing our state’s carbon footprint. But, rushing to implement the EMP in its current form will be disastrous for New Jersey’s residents and businesses. Just look at what has occurred in states such as California.
Not only will it triple energy costs throughout the state, but the EMP aims to mandate the elimination of reliable energy sources including clean natural gas, putting our energy access in great danger.
We need your help to get this message out and stop New Jersey from putting these damaging and unrealistic energy policies in place.
