BREAKING: @GovKathyHochul announced #NY’s next #OSW solicitation. Seeking enough #cleanenergy to power at least 1.5M homes and offering $500M in #offshorewind port infrastructure that will help create 2k #greenjobs. #NYActsOnClimate https://t.co/DiVa4ep0Fh

Here's the transcript of Trump's remarks at a New York fundraiser last week about coal and windmills.

[Bram Peterson @___bram___]

"The total direct and indirect benefits to Massachusetts ratepayers from the long-term contracts with Vineyard Wind are expected to be 3.5 cents/kWh, or $35.29/ megawatt-hours (“MWh”) on average over the term of the contract"

[NYS Energy Research and Development Authority @NYSERDA]

.@NYSERDA chosen by @ENERGY to lead $18.5M #OffshoreWind R&D consortium, which will develop innovations to reduce costs for this growing industry

This is another step in NY becoming a national offshore wind hub https://t.co/oPGszYKeMR

Some have argued that electricity mkts are flawed b/c their assets cannot compete, and the replacement of less efficient plants by new, state-of-the art gens results in a less reliable, less resilient grid. That’s just not the case. More at https://t.co/s3cS9QSVZL #valueofmarkets

"Coal and gas-fired plants accounted for just 38 percent of new electricity capacity financed globally last year, down from 71 percent a decade ago... Solar and wind now draw 53 percent of such investment, up from 22 percent, a Reuters analysis shows." https://t.co/9oP7mvvK9r

“The national survey by Pew Research Center, conducted March 27-April 9 among 2,541 adults, finds pockets of partisan agreement over expanding solar and wind power, though wide political divides remain over increasing fossil fuels”

Great news from Michigan:

Consumers Energy & DTE Electric reach agreement with RPS ballot campaign to hit 50% clean energy (at least 25% renewables, with the balance efficiency) by 2030. https://t.co/aCNtZusiO6

[IRENA @IRENA]

👍 Good for climate and good for jobs 🌍👷‍♂️👩‍💼

Transitioning to a renewable energy world will create 19 million new jobs by 2050 — more than offsetting fossil fuel job losses.

#Nuclear #energy advocates and industry, take note: Clean energy is the future. Dirty coal is the past. Choose your allies wisely or you'll end up in the dust bin with old "king" coal. https://t.co/HlbWv8Aogt

A staggering amount of data is informing the decision-making process of where to lease and build offshore wind turbines in the New York Bight- overlaying these data layers really highlights the level of detail that has gone into selecting these sites.

"Beyond the immediate damage to American competitiveness, trade restrictions push high-technology firms to locate elsewhere in the future. Tariffs can diminish trade flows, but ideas are easily relocated." https://t.co/xHGo8wsyBj

[Peterson Institute @PIIE]

Trump’s Section 301 tariffs are a prime example of 20th century tools aimed at the trade flows of the 21st century. Tariffs and quotas are ineffective at stemming knowledge flows between innovative countries and developing nations. By @melovely_max https://t.co/Bj91omu9Lx

[EIA @EIAgov]

EIA expects nearly 32 gigawatts (GW) of new #electric generating capacity will come online in the United States in 2018. EIA expects about 21 GW will come from natural gas-fired generators coming online in 2018. https://t.co/OJSNFEDlIh #natgas #naturalgas

[Bram Peterson @___bram___]

NYSERDA’s financial support, by design, does not kick in until these projects are fully constructed, knowing full well that not every project will come to fruition. Sharing development risk does not equate to a “rigged” process.

[Julia Pyper @JMPyper]

A new @BerkeleyLab report finds a 50% renewable energy scenario could drop wholesale energy prices by as much as $16 per MWh, such that super low prices would become commonplace. @emmafmerchant has the story:

Governor Cuomo Announces New Solicitation for Large Scale Renewable Energy Projects to Develop Clean Energy and Combat Climate Change https://t.co/IuO2igIi7G via @nygovcuomo

[State of New York @NYGov]

This second solicitation for large-scale renewable energy projects will accelerate New York's transition to a clean energy economy. https://t.co/xz7dsB8vkv
