Hochul revealed the plans in an interview with the Wall Street Journal on Monday, saying she’d requested the New York Power Authority to add at least 1 gigawatt of electricity generation to the state’s nuclear power capacity.

She added that the public utility could go at it alone or enlist private entities.

“I’m going to lean into making sure that every company that wants to come to New York and everyone who wants to live here will never have to worry about reliability and affordability when it comes to their utility costs,” Hochul told the outlet.
