A surety bond will serve as financial assurance of the Principal or the person who is applying for an electric power supplier license’s faithful performance of its duties to the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities. This includes the following: 

  • Fulfillment of all of its contractual duties that pertain to providing electric generation services to its clients 
  • That the electric power supplier will not file for bankruptcy 
  • That all taxes due will be promptly paid  

If a dispute occurs due to the electric power supplier licensee’s breach of contract or misconduct, the Obligee of the surety bond will be eligible to file a claim against the bond to recover the financial loss. 

 

This prerequisite is mandated by the Electric Discount and Energy Competition Act of 1999, N.J.S.A. 48:3-49 et seq. 

 

What is the Electric Generation Service Bond amount? 

The bond amount is $250,000. 

 

If you have an excellent credit score, you will be eligible for a very low bond premium, or 1% of the bond amount.
