Synapse assisted the New Jersey Division of Rate Counsel with the state's Energy Master Planning (EMP) process.

Key policy options considered in the NJ EMP included energy efficiency programs, reform of the auction for Basic Generation Service, establishment of a state power authority, and various efforts to promote renewable energy and ensure reliable electricity service at reasonable cost to consumers.
