Rochester Public Utilities (RPU) has committed to 100% renewable energy by 2030, however, it is currently considering a 50-megawatt “natural” gas peaker plant.

Despite assurances from RPU that no final decision has been made, the utility has begun moving forward as if to build the plant, citing permitting and supply chain issues. Our community needs to plan how to reduce our current fossil fuel consumption and eliminate its future use. With billions of dollars available for energy efficiency and retrofits, clean energy, and transportation through the Inflation Reduction Act, there is no reason we can’t pass on gas and stop pollution inside and out.
