To better prepare for the future and reduce costs, we are also taking the necessary steps to adopt long-term strategies that will:
- Build a cleaner, more affordable, and more reliable energy supply by investing in offshore wind, hydropower, nuclear power, and other renewable resources.
- Build energy efficiency and electrification programs that are not just increasing decarbonization and reliability but are creating good jobs.
- Capitalize on historic federal funding opportunities to maximize our investments.
These are just a few actions we are taking now, but throughout this legislative session, I will continue to ensure that we are prioritizing efforts to reduce the rising cost of energy.
Residents should never have to make the difficult decision between staying warm and putting food on the table.
