CPV Waits for NJ Permits for 2nd Gas-Fired Plant in Woodbridge
Competitive Power Ventures (CPV) currently operates a gas-fired power plant in the Keasbey section of Woodbridge, NJ. The plant currently generates power for about 700,000 homes. In 2018, CPV proposed adding a second power plant at the same location (see CPV Floats Plan for New Marcellus-Fired Power Plant in NJ). In August of last year, the green zealots of Food & Water Watch organized a small protest against the proposed second plant (see Zealots Turn Out to Protest Electric Energy in Woodbridge, NJ). Unbelievably, the anti-fossil fuel Governor of NJ, Phil Murphy, supports the new power plant and it appears to be moving forward.

The permitting reform measures, in particular, may help save the Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) project in the Marcellus/Utica region.
With liberal leftist Democrats like NY Gov. Kathy Hochul, popular opinion only matters during an election year, when getting elected (or reelected). After that, Dems like Hochul govern any darned well way they please. It doesn’t matter if a majority of the state’s residents oppose her cockamamie, screwed-up plans to commit energy suicide by banning natural gas across the entire state. She’s moving forward full-speed ahead with her energy suicide plan anyway.
