1 / New report shows just how much NYers could save with the *full* #NYHEAT Act. If NY capped utility bills at 6% of income, households would save an average of $136 a month—that's real money freed up for NYer’s groceries and rent. #NYHEAT now! @CarlHeastie @politicony

Our own @careoftheearth at @GB_Conference talking about the importance of new buildings being #AllElectricBuildings. Many good reasons: cost, comfort, #climate, health, safety.
“Stop putting fossil fuel systems in new buildings.” And the whole room burst into applause. - Lindsay from @agreenewyork #nysbdc2023 #buildgreen #renewableheatnow

You love to see it! #RenewableHeatNow ⚡️✊
The oldest limited-equity coop in the country is going geothermal (at least partly). Amalgamated coops in the Bronx is switching its two towers over to heat pumps, working with @GeoJayegg and now backed by NYSERDA. 316 units altogether nyserda.ny.gov/About/Newsroo…

This is the same thing we tell people: insulate first, then size the heat pump, then install solar based on the heat pump’s usage. Of course, some installers manage to do that all at once pretty well too, estimating the needed size of the solar.

We’ve been working on a home-by-home basis to improve energy efficiency and switching to heat pumps. We will continue but as Donovan Gordon @NYSERDA says “we need to move from home-by-home to neighborhood-by-neighborhood” - and CNY is working on it! @NYGE0 2022

Good info on prices on this thread. Did you install a heat pump? Share your details!
Doing research on heat pump costs. If you recently installed a heat pump, can you help us out by sharing: - When you installed it - How much it cost - What fuel you switched from (e.g. gas) - How big the system is (e.g. 3 ton, 2 mini-split heads)
