The NYS Public Service Commission met in Albany on Sept. 21 to review how utility companies are proposing to meet new energy efficiency standards. Climate advocates believe the utilities are falling short and should do more to push renewable heat rather than natural gas. We hear from Jessica Azulay of AGREE, John Ciovacco of Aztec Geothermal, Adam Flint of the Energy Democracy Alliance, Becky Meier of Stop NY Fracked Gas Pipeline and Suzy Winkeler. By Mark Dunlea for WOOC-LP, WGXC's partner station at The Sanctuary for Independent Media in Troy, New York.
