Township Of Millburn: PSE&G Back On Track, Together Program

Press release from the Township of Millburn:

February 9, 2022

The New Jersey Board of Public Utilities has expanded the income eligibility requirements for the Universal Service Fund (USF) and Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP), state programs that help make energy bills more affordable.  For example, for a family of four, the previous income limit for assistance was approximately $48,000 annually. The new income limit is $105,000 – more than double.

In addition, the Fresh Start Program has been expanded, providing forgiveness of past due balances as long as customers pay their monthly energy bills in full for a year.

Given the financial difficulties the pandemic has caused, PSE&G wants to help customers catch up on their overdue bills.  At PSE&G, we never want to shut off any customer’s utility service because of inability to pay.  We want to partner with customers to keep them connected and get them back on track, together.

PSE&G is collaborating with multiple social service agencies, throughout the state, to bring community advocates into our customer service centers to personally help customers access resources to help pay their utility bill.  Don’t wait – stop by as soon as possible to fill out an application so we can help you get back on track.
