Empowering Courageous Leadership

About EOPA New Jersey

EOPA New Jersey inspires leadership from elected officials across the state on addressing the climate emergency, protecting our land and water, and creating a healthy and prosperity future for all New Jerseyans.

Our Work

Clean transportation Infrastructure 

Our goal is to electrify our nation’s transportation system with large-scale public funding and national electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure to transition off of a fossil fuel transportation system to one using clean renewable energy. Our work has already built a clean vehicle coalition in New Jersey.

Offshore Wind Power initiative 

With a 11 gigawatt goal, New Jersey leads the East Coast in developing America’s offshore wind power, which has the potential to meet 90% of total U.S. energy demand
by 2050. We have a letter signed by elected officials in strong support of the responsible buildout of offshore wind.
