What Public Service Enterprise does

Regulated electric and gas utility (PSE&G) serving New Jersey, with a significant nuclear generation fleet.

The utility earns a return set by New Jersey's regulator on the pipes, wires and meters it invests in, and that business carries most of the company. The nuclear plants sell power into the regional PJM wholesale market, so that side moves with power prices. It sold its fossil-fuel power plants in 2022 to focus on these two businesses.
