“Electricity costs are already soaring in New York, and Governor Hochul’s nuclear plan will only make it worse,” said Andra Leimanis, Program Director at Alliance for a Green Economy. “Nuclear reactors are the most expensive way to produce electricity in the world, and take more than a decade to build. Governor Hochul is turning her back on the affordable and clean energy solutions we should be doubling down on right now. Instead, she wants us to pay billions of dollars for nuclear power plants that won’t provide electricity for over a decade. We say: ‘No to Nuclear — Yes to Renewables.’”
