@winclimate report shows 88% of New York households would save money through Bucks for Boilers. Median savings range from $500-$900 in an all-electric, more energy efficient home! That’s real money for working families! LINK report: pub.climate.win/b4b_report.p…

1 / New report shows just how much NYers could save with the *full* #NYHEAT Act. If NY capped utility bills at 6% of income, households would save an average of $136 a month—that's real money freed up for NYer’s groceries and rent. #NYHEAT now! @CarlHeastie @politicony

Lower costs are just one reason to pursue clean energy. Other reasons include: greater energy security, less price volatility, and lives saved from displaced fossil fuel pollution. Learn more about the #ChartOfTheWeek: bit.ly/45NOf50

NEW: New York’s buildings are the state’s largest source of carbon pollution. What’s the solution? To power heating, cooling, and appliances with clean electricity rather than fossil fuels. More in our new memo on the All-Electric Buildings Act: drive.google.com/file/d/16Is…

We’re on Long Island with allies to urge @GovKathyHochul to end gas in new construction, which saves people money. Today, we’re collectively releasing @winclimate analysis, which documents the savings, which our communities need. Enact #GasFreeNY, Gov!

Snigdha Sinha with @winclimate details how people would save money. On Long Island, a new one family home would save about $200 yearly on geothermal vrs gas and about $100 yearly with an air-source heat pump (pictured) vrs gas. Propane is especially an expensive waste.

NY climate groups + lawmakers are mounting a new push for the All-Electric Buildings Act, which would ban fossil fuels from new construction over the next 5 years. They’re leaning on a new study that found heat pumps could save homeowners upwards of $900/yr in utility bills

Just wrapped a 🔥 press conference for the All-Electric Buildings Act + new research finding NYers could save nearly $1,000/year in heating costs in new #GasFreeNY homes. @GovKathyHochul, this is common sense for our planet + our wallets! Read the report: bit.ly/aeb-report

"We found that a family living in a newly built all-electric home would save an average of $904/year on their mortgage and utility bills combined, compared with a family on fossil fuels. Heat pumps will become even cheaper when they're mass produced." - Max Shron, @winclimate

Hugely important new report from @winclimate launched today on how a #GasFreeNY will save New Yorkers' money on our utility bills. There's never been a better time to pass @EmilyAssembly and @BrianKavanaghNY's All Electric Building Act! foodandwaterwatch.org/2022/1…
