Decarbonizing the Downstate Grid: Taking Stock of Progress

In 2019, New York State committed itself to decarbonizing the state’s electricity grid by 2040. This goal may be particularly difficult to meet in New York City, where fossil fuels presently supply most of the electricity that is available. At this upcoming event, experts from government, industry, and non-profits will discuss the challenges that  officials face in decarbonizing the City’s electricity supply and the progress that has been made to date.
