ROTFLMFAO!!!!!!!
The hipocracy of these communists know no bounds.....
Green energy doesn’t work and it’s too expensive.
“site and technology feasibility assessments”
Follow the money.
Gonna be buckets and buckets flowing into these “assessments” and NOTHING will get built.
Like the CA Train Grift.
Every connected TeatSucker gonna make Bank!
A sizable portion of NY state sits on top of the same Marcellus Shale that Pennsylvania is successfully extracting cheap, clean natural gas from.
NY continues to ignore this quickly exploitable cheap energy source that would bring jobs and money to a dying region and gives lip-service to the much more distant (time-wise), expensive solution instead!
I am very pro-nuclear, but NY desperately needs natural gas first, so they can bridge the time gap needed for, hopefully, multiple nuclear power plant constructions.
Now hiring left-handed, black trans lesbian disabled furry, nuclear engineers !

ROTFLMAO
Seriously, can you imagine the fallout from their woke ideaology ?

I do that too. No way in hell I’m showing any respect to them.
What about that destroyed containment vessel in that nuke plant on Long Island that idiot governor did way back?
No F-ing way. Not in the US. All the agencies that could move along, much less stop a new Nuke, are hopelessly controlled by treehuggers — they don’t want clean energy, they want your children dead.
The only way a Nuke could work is to have it made by Gov’mt and then delivered to an existing site — which has sufficient transmission and cooling. Cut out all local approvals and minimize the risk of some arsehole paying off another judge.
That was a right-wing nuclear power plant. This will be a left-wing nuclear power plant. Some nuclear power plants are more equal than the rest.
I have a cousin who owns a 200 acre farm east of Buffalo out near Attica.
His parents operated it as dairy farm. He changed it to beef cattle and enough pigs/chickens, etc to feed his family and sell some beef. I takes too many ILLEGALS to operate a big milking operation today and be competitive.
He has a natural gas well on his property that National Fuel Gas put in many years ago. It feeds his house, barn, etc. So, he has free fuel.
Other than that the well has been capped for at least ten years.
I grew up in Orchard Park, NY(home of the Buffalo Bills). I knew of two other larger land owners a couple miles south of where I grew up that had capped gas wells on their property.
Just about a mile south of where I grew up there is a place in Chestnut Ridge Park where the Methane leaks out of the shale rock in a water fall. They call it “The Eternal Flame”. When we were kids. Everyone called it Gas Light Falls. You could light the flame with a Bic lighter.
My point is that there is so much Methane in the shale south of Buffalo that IF you drilled a well almost anywhere you would eventually hit gas. Sometimes, pretty close to the surface. On my parents former property the shale started about 3’ below the surface. We dug a lot of fence post holes.
I have surmised from this fact is that maybe National Fuel Gas was IN FAVOR of NY State/Coumo banning fracking. Mostly because they had so many wells capped that they did not want the value of their gas INVENTORY to decrease.
JUST MY 2 CENTS.
Just remember how liberal-controlled gov’t works: In California they ended up spending billions EACH, on a total of 9 EV charging stations - and not all were even finished.
re: “Good Laugh For Today: New York State Says It Will Build A New Nuclear Power Plant”
Somebody, quick - Ask the democrats WHAT happened to the last one?
Shoreham nuclear plant - billion plus dollar boondoggle when Mario ‘the Pious’ Cuomo closed it JUST after it was finished.
I think that’s likely. Lefties tend to be at that level when it comes to energy supply.
That was the Shorham Nuclear Plant out on Long Island. The plant was fully complete, even went through initial criticality and was ready for commercial operation, and then was shut down.
Guess who the governor then was… none other than Mario “The Pious” Cuomo, father of the ever corrupt Andrew.
That was a perfectly fine, 1000 MW power plant that cost over a billion dollars thrown away for a corrupt politician.
New York State is beyond help. Until the people there wake up from the hard left stupor they live in, nothing can save them. They are determined to destroy themselves.
Expected completion date is July 3025.
Figures.
And Kalifornia will build a choo-choo
