Program Description:
New York State’s landmark climate law, the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act of 2019 (CLCPA), requires that 70% of electricity come from renewable energy sources by 2030 and 100% from zero emission sources by 2040. However, challenges with interconnection, transmission, and distribution are delaying renewable energy development and jeopardizing the achievement of the CLCPA mandates.
Come join us for a webinar exploring: (1) the transmission, interconnection and distribution challenges in New York State; (2) how these issues are slowing down renewable energy development; and (3) recommendations and potential solutions to the problem.
