PJM, the Regional Transmission Organization (RTO) that manages the delivery of electricity to New Jersey and other states, has been warning about issues related to renewable energy policies in the states in which it operates since at least 2020.

"There’s a full-on race in the tech industry, and in tech-centric investment communities, to spend billions of dollars on new AI-infused infrastructures. The furious pace of expanding manufacturing to produce AI-capable silicon chips and simultaneously building massive, AI-infused datacenters is shattering the illusion that a digital economy enables a decoupling of economic growth from rising energy use."

"Newark Bay's Vincent R. Casciano Bridge, which is under the jurisdiction of the New Jersey Turnpike Authority, and the Commodore Barry Bridge, partially in New Jersey but owned by the Delaware River Port Authority, are the two crossings in the Garden State that are included in the NTSB list of structures that should get a risk assessment."

The national grade for infrastructure improved from C- in 2021 to C in 2025. Nearly half of the assessed categories saw grade increases, with ports receiving the highest grade (B) and stormwater and transit rated lowest (D). For the first time since 1998, no category received a D- grade.

Data centers, electric vehicles, and industrial electrification are driving projections of 4.5% annual load growth in PJM territory - a dramatic increase that will require new generation and transmission investments. This comes as the industry struggles with supply chain delays and workforce shortages.
