ACE NY is helping tell the stories of farmers who have harnessed the benefits of the clean energy transition. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting project.

Fort Edward Town Supervisor Tim Fisher: "The loudest voice against this project does not live in Fort Edward. She owns a few acres a couple of towns over that she does not live on, and she has built a following by casting herself as an environmental expert." https://archive.pulse.ly/nwvfxznyak

"Because renewables have zero fuel cost and reduce the need to dispatch higher‑priced fossil units, they help reduce the price of electricity in most parts of the state." @nyiso.com SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK!!! GO RENEWABLES! https://nyiso.pulse.ly/q4eqrntx6k

Protecting the Earth is at the core of what we do. It's what gets us up each day, and makes the hard days a little more bearable. The bonus of stable prices, jobs, and community investments makes renewable energy that much easier to fight for. Happy Earth Day! #EarthDay
