"Québec last week avoided a blackout, despite the frigid Arctic cold snap, by importing electricity from New York. But it may be out of luck next time, along with the Empire State itself, thanks to the green rush to kill reliable sources of power."

The #CLCPA mandates that 70% of New York’s power come from renewables by 2030, and 100% carbon-free sources by 2040. But, New York’s doesn't have to lose reliable generating capacity to serve load when #solar or #wind plants can’t deliver. 
"In other words, the state’s electric grid is growing ever more unreliable — even as the state is also pushing for far greater reliance on electric heat." Reports from @NewYorkISO have got more persistent and dire. nyiso.com/-/press-releas…
"The official [#CLCPA] plan... is for backup to be provided by 'DEFRs — dispatchable emissions-free resources.' Those are clean-power backup sources — but no such thing exists yet." See the DEFR needed deployed in 17 years @NewYorkISO's "2021-2040 Outlook" nyiso.com/-/the-outlook-…
@NewYorkISO "Yes, Hydro-Québec has agreed to supply the Big Apple with 1,250 megawatts of clean electricity. But @empire_hanley points out the deal 'does not obligate Hydro-Québec to provide power in winter.'" empirecenter.org/publications/a…
"California’s brownouts last year are a glimpse of the green-energy nightmare awaiting New York. This madness also guarantees soaring electric bills even when the lights are on, as wind and solar still cost more than traditional power generation." nypost.com/2022/09/09/cal…
"New York deserves a realistic energy plan before it’s too late."
We, partnering with labor groups, proposed exactly such a plan to provide for a prosperous and sustainable future with abundant, reliable, clean energy. #BrightFutureNY @GovKathyHochul nuclearny.org/bright-future/

Act now by asking @GovKathyHochul to not follow #Germany and #California, heed the warnings of @NewYorkISO + New York State Reliability Council; and course correct New York towards a prosperous & sustainable future. nuclearny.org/action/
