New Jersey Resources chief operating officer Stephen Westhoven said: “Clean energy is, and will continue to be, an important part of our business, and we will continue to make prudent investments to positon our company for long-term growth.
“The completion of the sale of the Two Dot wind farm is the successful first step of our strategic plan, which targets the sale of our remaining onshore wind assets over the next 12 months.”
