NEWARK, N.J., June 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- In 2023, PSEG is celebrating 120 years of powering our lives: home, work, family and community. PSEG's long history has embedded the company into the fabric of New Jersey thanks to many generations of hard working, loyal employees who often stay for their entire career, decade after decade.
"120 years is a significant milestone for us, a testament to our current and former employees and the customers, neighbors and shareholders who have put their trust in us," said Ralph LaRossa, PSEG chair, president and CEO. "Public service is not just in our name, it's what we do. Since 1903 we have rolled up our sleeves to deliver safe, affordable and reliable services to homes and businesses across the region. We look forward to doing the same for the next 120 years."
The company began in 1903 as the Public Service Corporation, a combination of 400 gas, electric and trolley companies. The company has been headquartered in Newark since its founding.
PSEG is honored to celebrate this milestone and recognize and give thanks to our employees, some of whose families have worked here for multiple generations, even as long as the company as been established. Here are just a few noteworthy generational families:

In addition to multi-generations of PSE&G employees' families who have helped build our expansive electric and natural gas infrusturcture over the past 120 years, PSEG works hard to engage and support the communities where we live and work. Over the last 25 years, the PSEG Foundation has awarded over $125 million in grants through strategic partnerships, various programs including the Neighborhood Partners Program (NPP), and a robust employee-matching gift and volunteer grants program to help address social challenges at the root cause and positively impact the communities we serve.
PSEG also delivers energy to many historic and iconic locations and customers across the state. Read more about those businesses here, "PSEG Powers Campbell, Marcal Paper, New Jersey Transit, The Okonite Company, the Statue of Liberty and 65% of the State's Electric Vehicles."
