New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D) announced on April 14, 2022, that the New York Public Service Commission (PSC) approved contracts with Clean Path New York for its Clean Path NY (CPNY) project and H.Q. Energy Services for its Champlain Hudson Power Express (CHPE) project to deliver solar, wind, and hydroelectric power from upstate New York and Canada to New York City.[1] CPNY is scheduled to come online in 2027 and will connect resources in the upstate and western regions of the state to NYC. CHPE is expected to come online in 2025 and will deliver power from Canada. State officials said that by 2030, the two projects will reduce NYC’s need for fossil fuel generation by 50%. Governor Hochul said the approval of the contracts is "a major step forward” in achieving the state’s goal of producing 70% of its electricity from renewable resources by 2030. The projects are also expected to deliver up to $5.8 billion in overall societal benefits and $8.2 billion in economic development across the state.
