After a planning process that launched in April 2008 and included more than a year of public comment, New York State has recently released its draft State Energy Plan. Major elements in the SEP include: Long-range energy policy objectives and strategies to increase supply and reduce demand; 10 year demand forecasts; supply requirements needed to meet forecast demand; assessment of existing systems; projections of energy prices; analysis of potential sustainable energy resources and impacts.

The document is an interesting look into the State's energy future -- along with a blueprint for stimulating economic growth and technology innovation.
