PSEG HOSTS FINANCIAL PRESENTATION

Reaffirms 2009 Guidance of $3.00-$3.25 Per Share
Outlines Investment Program Supported By Strong Cash Flow

Ralph Izzo, chairman, president and chief executive officer of PSEG, spoke at a conference in New York hosted by the company for the financial community.

Izzo, and members of his senior management team, described a company in solid financial condition, a commitment to operational excellence, and a strong balance sheet with a greatly reduced risk profile positioned for organic growth opportunities -- especially utility related capital projects at a fair return. Izzo said that PSEG’s financial strength and low dividend payout ratio (41%-44%) also provides the opportunity for growth.

PSEG recently declared a 3.1% increase in its quarterly common dividend rate to a current annual rate of $1.33 per share which is payable to shareholders on or before March 31, 2009. A copy of the presentation can be accessed at www.pseg.com/investor.
