The State’s Climate Leadership and Protection Act outline plans in January 2019 for 70% of the state’s electricity to be supplied by renewable energy projects by 2040. In order to achieve this target, Kathy Hochul the state’s governor announced the tender of 22 green energy projects which will require an investment of $2.7bn. The future plans for the state consist of an 85% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 (from 1990 levels) and to be fully net zero state-wide in the same year. In this article, we will discuss three New York-based renewable energy developers who will play a key role driving this transition.
