Investor-owned utilities and energy service companies in New York made recommendations on community choice aggregation rules.

The New York Public Service Commission (NY PSC) OK'ed rules to implement community choice aggregation and a pilot program to shrink air conditioning loads.

The New York Public Service Commission (NYPSC) on Thursday refined their community aggregation for municipalities and rejected a request that the program abandon its opt-out structure.

The NY PSC voted 3-1 to allow municipal aggregation, enabling municipalities statewide to make bulk purchases of electricity and natural gas.
