PSE&G is supporting the growing needs of data centers.
When identifying potential data center locations, keep in mind that these services will often be provided at services 69 kV and above. These services require ample space for substation equipment. Please see the below table for reference:
|
Voltage |
Space (Required area for substation equipment) |
|
69kV |
2.5 acres |
|
138kV |
2.5 acres |
|
230kV |
2.5 acres |
|
345 kV |
2.5-5 acres |
| 500 kV | 7 acres |
Note: Capacity availability will be determined by the utility review.
PSE&G will provide three-phase Transmission Service at 138kV, 230kV, and 345kV using either a three-wire or four-wire configuration, depending on the load requirements. PSE&G may also require that all equipment installed for a 138kV service be designed for future operation at 230kV.
FAQs
-
After gathering the details on your proposed data center, PSE&G will complete a feasibility study to determine the impact of your requested electrical load in the area. We will consider the existing infrastructure and how your service needs affect our surrounding customers in order to determine if we can supply the requested amount of electricity.
-
Depending on the complexity of the request, PSE&G could require between 12 and 16 weeks to complete a feasibility study.
-
This study will outline the approved voltage to service your load, high-level capacity availability, utility work timing and high-level cost associated with the utility work.
-
It can take between two and four years to build a data center in New Jersey, depending on the complexity of the project. This timing includes both electrical service work that the customer needs to complete, as well as the time needed for electric utility review and equipment upgrades.
-
A typical data center service requires high voltage. Therefore, customers should assume they will need approximately one square acre (43,560 square feet) to house the high voltage equipment that is part of a customer-owned substation.
-
The new hyperscale/cloud data centers of today have energy demands that are 200-300 watts per square foot versus previous data centers that required 20-30 watts per square foot. This increase in demand is due to the higher density of equipment along with the cooling needs of computers using newer [AI] chip technology.
