NYPA Hearing on Building Public Renewables

The New York Power Authority is holding hearings on its proposal to build 7 GW of renewable electricity to meet the mandates of the Build Public Renewables Act. Climate activists want that target increased to 15 GW. We hear first from Robert Ciesielski of the NYS Sierra Club Energy Committee; Michael Richardson of Third Act Upstate; Jeanne Bergman of Sane Energy Project; and Anne Erling of Albany of the Climate Reality Project.
