New York · 2024: 24.43¢/kWh · Rank #7 of 50, highest first · U.S. benchmark: 16.48¢/kWh

FactVote combines EIA annual utility-scale generation with estimated small-scale solar generation, then groups sources into seven categories. The residential price is EIA's annual average revenue per kilowatthour and includes generation, transmission, distribution, taxes, and fees reflected in electric bills. Generation is electricity produced inside New York, not electricity consumed there; interstate imports and exports are not represented. Small-scale solar generation is estimated by EIA. The 'other' category is the residual of remaining reported energy sources. The residential price is a statewide nominal average and can mask large differences among utilities, plans, and household usage. Annual observations use December 31; monthly observations use the first of the month. Lines connect consecutive readings and do not supply values between them. Missing observations break the lines.

How major events are selected

The timeline combines the corresponding national fact’s reviewed event catalog, labeled National context, with individually reviewed state milestones. State events use primary sources and distinguish signing, effective and filing dates. Each milestone keeps its source-check date, geographical limits and evidence limits. This curated selection is not a complete history.

Date ranges affect events and actions. Action type, status and official-name search affect government records only. Events remain separate from action counts. An event after the latest observation extends context without creating a new reading.

Method and limitations

U.S. Energy Information Administration weekly retail motor-gasoline survey estimate for New York. FactVote displays the published dollars-per-gallon value and calculates changes from the published prior-week and year-earlier observations.

  • This is a statewide survey estimate, not the price at every station or in every New York community.
  • The series is nominal and not adjusted for inflation or seasonal patterns.
  • Weekly estimates can be revised and can differ from monthly averages.

In-state electricity generated from natural gas

47%2024

Share of electricity generated within New York from natural-gas-fired power plants during 2024.

This source snapshot keeps its own definition and period. A rank shown elsewhere applies only to that comparison’s measure and period.

Other 2024 generation shares

Hydroelectric
21%
Nuclear
20%
Solar
6%
Method and limitations

FactVote calculated each share from the U.S. Energy Information Administration's 2024 state profile: utility-scale generation from Table 5 plus estimated small-scale solar generation from Table 19. The denominator includes both utility-scale and small-scale generation; displayed shares are rounded to whole percentages.

  • This describes electricity generated inside New York, not every source of electricity consumed in the state.
  • Electricity is only one part of statewide energy use and greenhouse-gas emissions.

Outage minutes per customer · all events

EIA distribution-system reliability for utilities using the IEEE standard. SAIDI is average customer interruption duration; SAIFI is average frequency.

Reported customer coverage is incomplete and differs by state. These figures cover reporting utilities, not every customer. Major-event definitions follow IEEE; a severe-weather year can dominate the all-events value. Coverage percentage is not itself outage performance.

October 2012. Most Long Islanders don’t need to be reminded of what Superstorm Sandy took from them.Homes destroyed, neighborhoods underwater, and businesses wiped out overnight. Thousands of families were without power for days; many for weeks. Beaches, marinas, roads, and wastewater systems took years to recover and communities are still feeling it.Sandy wasn’t just a storm, it was a stress test; Long Island’s infrastructure failed.The question isn’t whether the next major storm is coming. The question is when and will webe ready. Right now, the honest answer is: not enough.Extreme weather is intensifying. Coastal flooding is worsening. Long Island’s electric grid remains vulnerable. Drainage systems that were outdated before Sandy are still outdated today. Unfortunately, too many of the federal investments that should have come home to Suffolk County never came.Chris Gallant is a Black Hawk pilot, air traffic controller, and firefighter. He understands that you don’t wait for the emergency to prepare for it. You build the systems, train the teams, and secure the resources before the alarm sounds because once it does, it’s too late to start.In Congress, Chris will fight to make sure Long Island is never caught unprepared again.

The climate crisis is not “coming,” it is already here, in rising temperatures and tides, and communities in NY-10 in Red Hook, Sunset Park, and Lower Manhattan are on the frontlines. Democrats must not retreat from climate action, and Brad never will. Urgent, robust action is required now to end our reliance on fossil fuels and implement a Green New Deal to transition rapidly to renewables, and to reap the benefits for Americans that will come with good green jobs, abundant and cheap renewal energy, expanded energy security, and healthier and safer neighborhoods. Brad has been a climate champion for decades. In the City Council, he passed legislation to ban plastic bags and styrofoam, and to reduce NYC’s reliance on fossil fuels. As Comptroller, Brad directed our pension funds to take the boldest action of any large U.S. public pension fund to combat climate change, divesting $4 billion from fossil fuels and investing over $15 billion in climate solutions. Brad was a leader in the fight for congestion pricing. When Governor Hochul placed it on pause, he convened the coalition of advocates and attorneys that brought two successful lawsuits that got it implemented. Now, he is opposing Governor Hochul’s rollback of the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act. Working with the Mayor’s Office of Climate and Environmental Justice, Brad won a federal grant to create “Public Solar NYC,” which Trump canceled along with other Solar for All grants. Brad will work with the Mamdani Administration to get Public Solar NYC implemented, bringing free rooftop solar to tens of thousands of homes in New York City, and launching a municipally-owned public option for renewable energy. Brad will never accept donations from fossil fuel companies, and he’ll always fight for the frontline communities in NY-10. Read more about Brad’s plans to combat the climate crisis.

How statements are selected

This section matches specific electricity, fuels, energy costs and emissions terms in retained, attributed source text from published New York candidate profiles. A profile heading or biography alone does not qualify. The Florida geography is fixed; saved state preferences cannot change these results. A mention can concern a community or group rather than Florida’s statewide measure.

Matching is automatic and does not establish a candidate’s stance, the accuracy of a claim, or an effect on the measured result. Results are grouped by recorded race, then by candidate name. Within each candidate, the matching issue mentions appear first. Only candidates with matching retained statements are shown; this is not a complete race roster. Repeated identical text for the same candidate is shown once. Coverage follows the existing state profiles and is not a complete record of all candidates or everything they have said. Review dates are not statement dates.

What sponsorship and proposal counts tell us

Only current New York officeholders retained in the reviewed collection qualify. Bills require a recorded primary sponsorship; cosponsors and signing officials are excluded from sponsorship counts. An official introducer recorded as acting by request is labeled “Introduced by request”; that procedural role does not establish personal policy endorsement. Governor and agency records qualify when recorded as proposed. A separately verified governor transmittal can also establish an original proposal whose latest status reflects its later outcome. Signing an enacted law alone does not establish a proposal. A record appearing under several facts is counted once per officeholder. A bill with multiple primary sponsors appears under each recorded sponsor.

Enacted bills, adopted resolutions and unsuccessful measures remain visible as proposal history. Passing one chamber is not enactment. These counts do not measure effectiveness or prove that an action changed a New York statistic. Collection reviewed Sep 3, 2026.
