What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

ORES has asserted its authority to override local laws concerning green energy projects in New York. This action supports the Rolling Hills Wind Project, which plans 90 wind turbines in Herkimer County. Local residents and the Holy Trinity Monastery oppose the project, citing concerns that the turbines create infrasound vibrational noise.

ORES's authority allows large-scale renewable energy projects to proceed even when facing local opposition. This regulatory power, which is supported by New York state legislation, impacts the ability of developers to secure permits and move forward with infrastructure construction.
