[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]New York passed a green energy law, requiring regulations to be passed two years ago describing how they would get the reduced CO2 emissions. The state agency didn't write any regulation, and was sued. In the case, the state said the regulations would cause an increase in prices by 35%, in the cheapest scenario that didn't even reach the target in the law.[/quote] New York’s climate law doesn’t mandate a 35% price hike, and there’s no statute, regulation, or court ruling that says that. Nor was there any finding by New York regulators of a 35% price hike as a result of enacting the regulation. The CLCPA sets emission targets, not utility bills. Transition costs are debated, but the law is about cutting pollution, not forcing rate spikes. The only place the 35% number came from was from fossil-fuel-linked organizations touting questionable worst-case scenarios.[/quote]
