TRENTON – Two bills sponsored by Senator Bob Smith which would promote renewable energy systems in New Jersey homes were approved by the Senate Economic Growth Committee yesterday.
“Tapping into renewable energy sources to help offset home heating and energy costs is the wave of the future, and New Jersey should do all it can to support green-minded homeowners,” said Senator Smith, D-Middlesex and Somerset, the Chair of the Senate Environment Committee. “These programs will go a long way to make expensive alternative energy home systems a reality, and put the Garden State at the forefront of efforts to curb greenhouse gas emissions and conserve natural resources.”
