​MAYS LANDING, N.J. (Feb. 26, 2020) – Atlantic City Electric has grown the company's presence in southern New Jersey with the addition of a new Project Management Office in Glassboro that officially opened with a ribbon cutting ceremony attended by employees, elected officials and Gloucester County Chamber of Commerce members. The 30-employee location will house Atlantic City Electric's Project Management teams that design, plan and execute projects to strengthen critical energy infrastructure and build a more resilient grid. With the office's close proximity to Rowan University, the location has great potential for future intern and career opportunities for Rowan graduates and will host a Rowan intern this summer.

"We are excited to grow our footprint in the Glassboro community and bring a new office that joins our Operations facility just up the road," said Gary Stockbridge, Atlantic City Electric region president. "This new location allows us to grow our relationship with Rowan University and Glassboro and offers new opportunities for students to gain hands on experience working on our efforts to modernize the local energy grid with new and innovative technologies that are enhancing reliability for customers."

The reliability projects led by this office are a core part of Atlantic City Electric's strategic efforts to modernize the energy grid serving South Jersey and improve reliability and service for the company's 560,000 customers. As a result of our ongoing efforts, customers continue to experience improvements in the reliability of their energy service. During the past five years, energy system upgrades and new innovative technologies have driven a 22 percent decrease in the frequency of electric outages customers experienced.
