I don't think NY State can reach 45% renewalbe energy by 2015. The solar PV won't give much help on the % increase of renewables. And we do not know the electric impact when more than 30% of unstable wind power feeds into the core grid. Without the basic engineer understanding of system impact, to make such a high percentage of renewable energy, it seems too optmistic to me. Bunhu Khou Dear Mr. Philip:

It would be nice to surpass these goals if possible. We need more aggressive goals like this… if we’re to reach energy independence. It would be nice to surpass these goals if possible.
