Economic Moat

Public Service Enterprise Group has a narrow economic moat

PSE&G’s established electric and gas delivery networks serve designated parts of New Jersey, where building duplicate networks would be costly and impractical. This limits direct competition for its regulated delivery business, though PSEG also operates in competitive energy markets.

What protects Public Service Enterprise Group from competitors

Efficient Scale

PSE&G delivers electricity and gas through extensive networks in its assigned New Jersey service areas. A rival would have to build costly duplicate lines and pipes to reach the same customers, making direct competition for delivery service difficult.

What could weaken Public Service Enterprise Group's moat

Efficient Scale

Open the delivery market

A regulatory change that lets rival utilities build and operate competing delivery networks in PSE&G’s service areas would weaken this protection.
