Governor Kathy Hochul's push for green energy is heavily impacting the affordability of energy for New Yorkers. Recent rate hikes from Con Edison, including an 11.4% average increase in electric bills and a 13.3% increase in gas bills, reflect the burdensome outcome of state policies against fossil fuels. Despite aiming to reduce reliance on oil and gas, the necessary infrastructure and energy mandates create soaring costs, pushing bills potentially to $500 monthly. The overarching climate plan could inflict a staggering price tag reaching up to $1 trillion, raising questions on long-term sustainability and affordability.
Gov. Kathy Hochul's aggressive green energy policies are significantly increasing energy costs for New Yorkers, with utility rate hikes causing monthly bills to soar.
The state's crusade against fossil fuels, driven by Hochul and her predecessor Cuomo, has led to soaring energy prices and increased reliance on costly alternative energy sources.
