PSEG Power Fossil: 0.8 TCR = 70% of Fossil Fuel Electric Power Generation BLS 1.2 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

PSEG Power Fossil safety composite

PSEG Power Fossil scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 73% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 17%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
