The majority of energy in New York City is currently generated from fossil fuels. Building renewable energy projects within the five boroughs will help reduce our dependence on polluting energy sources and meet the city’s goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2050.
The Community Energy Planning Tool is designed to help city planners, project developers, building owners, and Environmental Justice advocates gain a better understanding of local clean energy resources, explore the feasibility of community-scale renewable energy installations, and identify opportunities for equitable investments in frontline communities.
The tool also provides additional resources on technical feasibility, funding assistance, zoning and permitting for local renewable projects.
When we bring our voices, our action, and our advocacy to our schools, our homes, and our workplaces, we can create a more sustainable and resilient future for the 8.3 million people who call our five boroughs home.
