If you can’t count on the federal government to protect its citizens from the ravages of climate change, then you have to count on the states to step up.  With the sixth largest economy on planet Earth, California has led the way in vehicle electrification, EPA emissions standards, solar homes mandates, and many other energy policy efforts to thwart climate change.  Not to be outdone, however, New York Governor Andrew M. Cuomo has announced the release of the state’s comprehensive Energy Storage Roadmap to guide New York toward a “nation-leading” energy storage target.  NY’s Roadmap sparks the development of clean energy technology while supporting the Governor’s energy storage target of 1,500 megawatts by 2025.

NY's Roadmap
The ambitious 1500 MW goal is equivalent to the electricity demand of 1/5 of all NY homes.  The comprehensive plan will also bolster the Reforming the Energy Vision strategy to build a clean, resilient, and affordable energy system for all New Yorkers to combat climate change.
