New York has "No Plan B" for the power plants they're shutting down

Just so we're clear - New York has "No Plan B" for the power plants they're shutting down

Two weeks ago, the New York State legislature and the state’s looney tunes chief executive, Governor Kathy Hochul, got together to hammer out a final budget deal for the year. With everything else that goes on during those sorts of negotiations, they still found time to screw the citizens of the state over royally in the name of “climate change.”

As part of last week’s budget deal, Gov. Kathy Hochul and the Legislature ordered the New York Power Authority to shut down all its fossil-fuel plants in just seven years — even though gas-fired plants supply nearly half the state’s electricity.

At the same time, they banned gas (for stoves and heating) in all new buildings by 2029, forcing them to be all-electric.

And by 2035, the only new cars sold here must also be purely electric.

No worries, right? These Green dreamers have had decades-worth of time to get this right and billions of dollars in tax-payer funded subsidies to make sure the technology was locked on – ready to be up and running for a freezing, brutal Buffalo winter or a sweltering Scarsdale summer. These are The Professionals™ and The Scientists™ we have all been directed and admonished not to question or interrupt as they dictate “HOW LIFE MUST BE.”

Pretty copasetic, right? It’s all gonna work with exponentially more grid requirements coming online due to EV and home heating mandates alone, coupled with shutting the old, dirty fossil fuel based reliables down…right?

Actually….not really. But it seems the CLIMATE EMERGENCY™ is more dire than making sure the lights/heat stay on, so the geniuses who know better than you will figure that part out later.

I’m not guessing about that part – they said so.
