70% of electricity used to meet New York's statewide load must be renewable by 2030. Currently, even in the most optimistic scenario, we'll miss this goal unless we implement the Build Public Renewables Act (BPRA) to its maximum potential. We passed the bill earlier this year, but now it's up to us to make sure the Governor and the New York Power Authority (NYPA) unleashes its full power.
Join our call for a presentation from Assemblymember Sarahana Shrestha on this bill can do, why it's one of the most transformative bills to pass not just in the country, but in the world, and how it creates an opening for full public power, where even the distribution grid owned by corporations like Central Hudson and NYSEG can be owned by the public instead.
