Enacts the "affordable clean energy (ACE) act"

Summary

The bill requires gas and electric utilities to obtain a public service commission certificate before constructing new fossil fuel plants, while renewable and storage projects are exempt. It also orders the state Power Authority to propose and develop at least two major transmission projects that will help connect more renewable energy sources, with an expedited commission review. The goal is to ensure new energy infrastructure serves the public interest and advances New York’s clean‑energy targets.
