The New Jersey Transit Rail Operations Center will benefit from the planned NJ TRANSITGRID, a first-of-its-kind electric microgrid for transportation that can supply highly reliable power during storms or other times when the centralized power grid is compromised. New Jersey Transit is working on the project with Sandia National Laboratories, which won a Federal Laboratory Consortium national award for the economic development partnership.
