(Newark, NJ - June 12, 2025) PSE&G is prepared for hurricane season in New Jersey, which is underway now through Nov. 30, and wants customers and neighbors to be, too. We continue to endeavor to safeguard our customers' utility service from the damaging impact of extreme weather by strengthening and upgrading our infrastructure. These efforts are part of our aim to deliver safe, reliable service even when severe weather strikes.
"Storms can happen at any time, and being prepared is one of the most important ways we can protect ourselves and our communities," said Paul Toscarelli, vice president of electric operations at PSE&G. "Our teams work year-round to strengthen the grid and improve restoration times, and we encourage our customers to take time to prepare their homes and families as well."
Over the past several years, we have upgraded many miles of wire and new circuits have been installed to further add reliability for our customers. These improvements and upgrades allow us to minimize the customer impact and restore customers quickly, especially for critical facilities like hospitals, water treatment plants needed for health and safety services for our community.
