PEAK COALITION RELEASES PLAN TO RETIRE ALL NYC PEAKER PLANTS BY 2030

The PEAK Coalition, composed of NYLPI and environmental justice partners, has released The Fossil Fuel End Game: A Frontline Vision to Retire New York City’s Peaker Plants by 2030 –– the first-ever plan to retire all fossil-fuel peaker power plants in New York City by 2030 and replace them with clean, local distributed energy solutions including offshore wind, local solar, and battery storage. This decentralized approach creates a more resilient power system than the current grid, which depends on centralized fossil-fuel power plants.
