Representatives of Public Service Electric & Gas met with officials of Midland Park, Waldwick and Wyckoff this week in an effort to answer some of the questions and concerns they have expressed about the pole-attached solar panels they are installing throughout New Jersey.
Although PSE&G has halted its installation of solar panels on utility poles in Midland Park, Waldwick and Wyckoff, a preview of what’s to come can be seen on Vreeland Avenue in Midland Park.
Administrators from the towns as well as those from Glen Rock and Ridgewood met with PSE&G in Waldwick last month to ask that the company stop installing the panels after questions arose about whether the company had the authority to install them.
