Offshore Wind Goal
NYC
Load Center
New York has the nation's most aggressive climate law (CLCPA) targeting 100% zero-emission electricity by 2040. The state is betting big on offshore wind despite project cancellations. NYC's massive load creates transmission constraints, and NYISO warns of potential reliability shortfalls. Indian Point's closure left a carbon-free generation gap.
