Sharing a recent talk on energy affordability in New York: why distributed solar + storage lower costs, reduce volatility, and why the ASAP Act matters right now as the state budget is finalized. Video below ↓ www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtL3...
It’s April Fools’ Day, which complicates things given how many implausible statements are already a normal part of my workday.

Dick Amper’s passing is deeply sad news for Long Island. For nearly my entire life, he was the steady, uncompromising voice reminding us that protecting this place wasn’t optional—it was a responsibility. Grateful for a life spent fighting for Long Island.

Math geeks of the world, rejoice!
Left the Long Island Youth Climate Summit this week feeling optimistic—not because the challenges are easy, but because of who’s stepping up. Small actions from people who care are the thing that changes the world. And these students are proving it.
Big step toward real energy affordability in New York.
I'm surrounded by strong women every day. I work with many, I'm in love with one, and I'm raising one. Their strength makes the world a better place, and it makes me a better man. #GiveToGain #IWD2026
Excited to return to John Jay College in June — Early Bird registration for the 2026 NYC Solar + Storage Summit is now open! www.nyseia.org/nyc-summit-2...
More than 13 years after Sandy, NYC still blocks home batteries. NYISO warns NYC reliability could be dangerously thin next year as bills climb. New legislation would align the fire code with state safety standards and finally allow safe home batteries. What would this mean for you?
What gives me hope about New York’s energy future?
Seeing this industry show up when it matters.
At NYSEIA’s lobby day, our members were focused, united, and clear about the stakes: real affordability for New Yorkers. I'm proud of this team. x.com/i/broadcasts...
As a proud child of the 1980's, one of the coolest aspects of my job is the frequency with which I have occasion to use the word "Gigawatt".
My inner ten‑year‑old gives a triumphant fist‑pump every time.

New report: Solar + storage could save New Yorkers $1 BILLION every year on energy costs. Shared by ALL customers—not just those with panels or batteries. The fastest way to make it happen? Pass the Accelerate Solar for Affordable Power Act. nyseia.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?...
Come work with me at NYSEIA! We’re hiring a Director of Industry Engagement—a unique role to connect with solar + storage leaders, grow our community, and shape NY’s clean energy future. Join a small, passionate team doing big things. Apply: www.nyseia.org/careers
2025 was tough for NY’s solar+storage industry, but 2026 brings real opportunity. NYSEIA is focused on NYers’ top concern: energy insecurity. Solar+storage are our strongest tools for affordability. With big budget gaps, we’re pushing no‑cost, high‑impact steps like the ASAP Act. Let’s get to work.
The groomer used some kind of cotton-candy-scented dog perfume and now everyone in my house is just casually walking around sniffing the dog like we’ve collectively lost our minds.
2025 tested NY’s solar + storage industry. In 2026, we rise.
We’ll fight energy insecurity, modernize the grid, and pass the ASAP Act: 20 GW solar by 2035.
Affordable. Resilient. Clean.
Halting 5 offshore wind projects isn’t just a setback—it’s reckless. These vetted projects were baked into grid plans. Pulling them means higher costs, reliability risks, and lost jobs.
We can’t build a 21st-century energy system with 20th-century tech. thehill.com/policy/energ...
NYSERDA’s latest report: distributed solar & storage are powering NY’s clean energy growth—and cutting costs for families. Solar jobs up 4%, storage up 8% in 2024. To keep momentum, NY must pass the ASAP Act: 20 GW by 2035 + faster interconnection. www.nyserda.ny.gov/About/Public...
🚨 PSC launches NYC Reliability Proceeding! 🚨
Case 25-E-0764 targets 2026 reliability gaps from retirements & rising demand. Big chance for solar, storage & DERs to lead. RFI for clean solutions coming early 2026. NYSEIA will drive industry response! documents.dps.ny.gov/public/Commo...
✅ Signed Today: A Big Win for Affordable Energy in New York!
Governor Hochul has signed legislation restoring stability in how solar projects are valued and taxed.
Solar projects lower energy costs for all New Yorkers — and this legislation ensures they can keep moving forward.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
Our industry doesn’t just weather change — it thrives on it. Last week, I stopped by a Greentech Renewables workshop with Sunstone Credit, Sunrock Distributed Generation, and Enphase. Incredible insights on IRA commercial solar finance and new tech.
Earlier this week, I attended the Long Island Energy Storage Summit, hosted by ACE NY, NYSERDA, Stony Brook University and NY-BEST. Leaders, first responders, and advocates explored how strong safety standards & community engagement can build trust and accelerate clean energy adoption in New York.
Leaving Albany feeling energized about NY’s solar + storage future! This week reminded me why this job is the greatest privilege of my career. Grateful for our incredible NYSEIA team, members & sponsors. Monday, the work continues.
Albany is buzzing ⚡️ The #NYSolarStorage Summit proves that even after a year of setbacks, our industry is stronger than ever.
Tomorrow: Day 2. Let’s keep building a future where every New Yorker can access clean, affordable energy. 🌞🔋
Hard to believe the NY Solar + Storage Summit is just a week away! Last year, it landed right after the presidential election—a time of uncertainty. This year, we’re coming together with momentum, sharing how we’ve adapted + grown. Tickets still available—join us! www.nyseia.org/about-register
13 years after Superstorm Sandy, too many New Yorkers still lack access to resilient power. With a new mayor coming in January, NYC has a chance to lead — updating outdated codes and unlocking safe, energy storage for all. Let’s build a stronger, fairer future together.
On Friday, Carolyn and I joined the Long Island Coalition for the Homeless to celebrate 40 years of impact. Their team leads with heart and vision — advocating, serving, and building community with compassion. Everyone deserves a safe place to call home.
