OANA Support For Sustainable Power

OANA is a strong supporter of the use of renewable, sustainable power, especially to the Energy Plants that surround Astoria/LIC. There have been a number of new companies coming into our area, each creating another sustainable spoke in the wheel of power generation. OANA does not at this point support one company over the other, we support a truly sustainable grid, whether in generation, transmission, or peaker plants.

We have recently testified in support of Equinor’s plan for wind farms on the waters off Montauk.

We look forward to the day when Astoria LIC is not surrounded by a necklace of Carbon emissions, but instead a halo of wind and sun!!!
