"If we miss it by a couple of years, which is probably what will happen, the goals are still worthy," says Gov. Hochul in response to notice New York won't meet its 2030 green-energy goals.
The state is burning billions, harming consumers, and jeopardizing reliable-energy capacity in pursuit of unattainable green-energy goals decades away.
New York's reliance on hydropower limits renewable growth; demanding goals require an unrealistic surge in solar and wind capacity, worsened by increasing power needs for AI technology.
Meeting energy demands may necessitate more fossil-fuel plants despite goals to reduce carbon emissions, leading to economic risks and soaring utility bills for New Yorkers.
