How can New Jersey Natural Gas help businesses and residents save on energy costs......

NJNG's residential program, SAVEGREEN, offers rebates to customers ($900 from NJNG, $300 from NJ Clean Energy Program) after installation of a qualifying high-efficient furnace or boiler. By taking the whole-home approach and switching to a new energy-efficient natural gas furnace or boiler, you could save up to 30 percent on energy costs and increase the comfort and value of your home

NJNG’s Economic Development Program is a fabulous program helping to strengthen our communities by supporting new and growing businesses.  Through the program eligible businesses could receive an incentive discount on their natural gas bills for up to three years.
