The Shifting Landscape of Esports Leagues
Compared to traditional sports, esports are in a constant state of flux at almost every level. New games enter the competitive scene as they are released or gain popularity, and the games themselves experience updates and balance changes throughout the year, from minor tweaks to new playable characters or maps. These changes are almost entirely decided by the games’ developers, who control not just the content of the games, but also have substantial influence over the competitions involving them, creating a tournament landscape that can be difficult to navigate for newcomers and professionals alike.

New Jersey Board of Public Utilities Takes New Action on Community Solar Petitions
The New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU) approved four Community Solar PY2 project petitions granting deadline extensions due to unforeseeably long interconnection delays, which “were systemic, unforeseen and unforeseeable by the Petitioners, and wholly outside of their control.” The Board granted relief for these projects by waiving the rules that require PY2 projects to be complete and submit post-construction documents before the November 4, 2023 deadline. The Board found that full compliance with these rules would adversely impact New Jersey ratepayers and permitted an extension of time for these projects to remain in the Community Solar Program and in the TI Program to receive TRECs if the projects submit all required documents within four months after the necessary upgrades to interconnect the projects are complete.
