New Jersey’s Public Service Electric and Gas will invest $883 million in Hackensack to transform a former hazardous-waste storage site into a solar energy farm. The project is part of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Brownfield and Land Revitalization Program. Over 225 megawatts of solar capacity will be installed, and 300 direct jobs per year will be created over the next five years.
