ALBANY, New York — Gov. Kathy Hochul has cracked the door open to the potential for new, small nuclear power plants as a way for the state to try to meet its ambitious climate goals.

The prospect was once dismissed by top officials and carries a whiff of irony after former Gov. Andrew Cuomo shuttered the state’s second-largest nuclear plant, Indian Point in Westchester County, in 2021.

But as the state’s far-reaching zero emissions electricity goal by 2040 looms, there’s more openness to the idea.

NY state has zero chance of net zero by 2040, it's ludicrous to even have it as a "goal".  And they are supposed to be at 70% renewable by 2030.  They today are around 60% natural gas for electricity.  

Even if they went full bore to SMRs, they couldn't get there in time.

All these "mandates" are amusing to me.
