Vice President of Government Affairs Ken Pokalsky joined the podcast to discuss a newly released memo from the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) to the governor’s office titled “Likely Costs of CLCPA Compliance.” The memo marks the first time since the implementation of the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA) that the state has outlined the potential cost impacts of the climate law enacted in 2019. Ken breaks down the costs detailed in the memo, what comes next for the CLCPA, and why concerns about affordability call for adjustments to the law—not its abandonment.
