Summary
The most recent settlement of the electrical power strategic action field is New York’s Reforming the Energy Vision (REV). REV attempts to align the utility regulatory framework with the decarbonization imperative. This chapter presents five of REV’s main features: a Clean Energy Standard, an Energy Efficiency Portfolio Standard, a valuing of distributed energy resources, a revision of low-income programs and expansion of access to ownership opportunities, and a green bank.
