Description:

Abstract:

This data represents point locations for electric generating units (EGU) in New Jersey that are subject to the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI). These electric generating units are operated using fossil fuels and are at or above 25 megawatts in capacity.

Purpose:

The purpose of this data is to describe the location of electric generating units that are subject to the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI).
