Schumer Calls for Solar Energy Improvement

KINGSTON, N.Y. — Senator Charles Schumer is pushing for the use of solar energy in New York State.

The U.S. Senator was in Kingston saying he wants to see improvements to a program that provides energy credits to solar panel owners depending on how much energy they use, also known as net metering.

The program ended for Central Hudson Gas and Electric in July, because they reached the allowable credit limit set by the state’s Public Service Commission.
