During last week's #ClimateWeek event, DEC Commissioner Amanda Lefton spoke about how changing the way we power our state results in predictable and lower energy bills.
During our #ClimateWeek event last week, E2 Executive Director Bob Keefe spoke about how the attacks on clean energy are costing jobs and investments in our communities.
🎂Happy Birthday to our Clean Energy Analyst, Jed Prickett! Drop a 🎉 in the comments to wish Jed a happy birthday!
Thanks to Matty Aracich and the Nassau/Suffolk Building Trades for highlighting how battery storage can optimize our grid, improve reliability, and help stabilize and lower utility costs for New Yorkers.
Research shows that shading from solar panels can actually help soil retain moisture, protect crops from extreme heat, and improve yields for certain plants, all while generating affordable, emissions-free power. https://energiesmedia.pulse.ly/hn54h9dxqd
American farmers slid solar panels over 62,000 acres of farmland, and the biggest payoff had almost nothing to do with electricity
Long rows of solar panels march across the desert, and underneath them, where the ground should be baked and bare, there are rows of green.

New York’s solar energy is growing, and so are the benefits. ☀️ @nyserda.bsky.social Read the full commentary from WAMC: https://wamc.pulse.ly/5csgd2sngs
Commentary: New York’s solar energy is growing
As we all understandably rush to turn on the air conditioning, our electric grid experiences something called “peak load." As demand increases, so do electricity prices.

Happy Work Anniversary, Barry! 🎉 Another great year at ACE NY. Help us celebrate by leaving your congratulations below! 👏
This summer, New York is building enough electricity generation to power 5 million homes. That's the largest summer energy buildout in New York state history. The hard work is starting to pay off! Read more: https://aceny.pulse.ly/q4cxgc3avq
Happy Fourth of July! 🇺🇸 Wishing everyone a safe and enjoyable holiday as we celebrate the people, communities, and innovations that continue to help power New York's future.
"New York’s utility-scale solar projects are all being built on private lands, with willing landowners who are looking for a way to keep farmland in their family and preserve it for future generations." - A portion of our statement in light of the letter sent by federal authorities to Gov. Hochul
ACE NY is helping tell the stories of farmers who have harnessed the benefits of the clean energy transition. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting project.
Fort Edward Town Supervisor Tim Fisher: "The loudest voice against this project does not live in Fort Edward. She owns a few acres a couple of towns over that she does not live on, and she has built a following by casting herself as an environmental expert." https://archive.pulse.ly/nwvfxznyak

When we listen to real farmers, the story becomes clear. Solar supports farms, it doesn't replace. Talk to real farmers, get the real story. https://timesunion.pulse.ly/3haydo2276
Commentary: Adirondack solar project isn't killing our farm. It's saving it.
Farmers have always had to adapt to stay afloat. Bring down the cost of connecting to the electrical grid to keep the Foothills Solar project alive.
