SJR 68 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Designates March 21 each year as "Renewable Energy Day" in NJ.

This resolution designates March 21 each year as "Renewable Energy Day" in New Jersey, requesting the Governor issue an annual proclamation to encourage public observance. It recognizes New Jersey's renewable energy progress - such as achieving 5 gigawatts of solar capacity by 2024 and aiming for 50% renewable energy by 2030 - while highlighting the state's commitment to equitable access and climate benefits. The measure is symbolic, with no new policies or funding, and aligns with the national "Renewable Energy Day" observed on March 21.
