New Jersey Solar Installation Update - December 2012

The New Jersey Office of Clean Energy reported a build of 9Mw for the month of December. (This is a preliminary number as of January 7th). If this is actually close to the final number, it indicates that the solar industry in New Jersey is finally starting to develop within the goals of the Renewable Portfolio Standard RPS set out by law.
 

In the previous two years solar development has been in excess of the RPS goal and caused a glut of solar credits. The ratepayers in New Jersey are protected from over-development by a competitive solar credit market based on supply and demand.
 

The following is a chart which shows the monthly build rates of solar compared to the RPS goals set out by law. We ran a 6 and 12 month moving average as well. There is an overlay of the SREC pricing (a monthly average of Flett Exchange daily SREC settlement prices) which demonstrates the supply-

demand relationship.
