The New York Home Energy Affordable Transition or
NY HEAT Act would lower home energy bills for
millions of New Yorkers who have natural gas service.
If passed, the the law would direct the state’s Public
Service Commission to limit the average energy
burdens of low-to-moderate income households
to 6% of their earnings.
In the recent session of the New York legislature the
act passed in the Senate but failed in the Assembly.
Legislation to enact the Heat Act will go the State
legislature again in the upcoming session.
Advocates are lobbying Governor Hochal to include the
act in her up-coming budget.

New Yorkers for clean power
