Wind Power and Alternative Energy
Copyright 2004 Read and Laniado, LLP
With Governor Pataki's announcement of his renewable energy initiative, in his 2003 State of the State address, wind power became increasingly important in New York's energy future. Concerned with the effects of fossil-fired generation on the climate and the environment, Governor Pataki's proposal directed the Public Service Commission to ensure that, over the next ten years, 25 percent of the electricity sold in the state is derived from renewable sources. The Commission's renewable energy portfolio proceeding is ongoing.
