What happens if the grid fails? During the blizzard of '22, thousands were in the dark and without power. Many wonder if we'll be able to make these adjustments here. WNY has older buildings and colder temperatures than other parts of New York State. "Building an electric network for electrifying heat in Western New York is neither practical nor cost effective," said Donna DeCarolis, President of National Fuel Gas Distribution. Studies by National Grid suggest we need more than that. To handle that, the grid capacity is going to double and projects to make that happen are already underway. We'll be relying on the electric grid for heating, cooling, running our cars and more, according to Harris. All vehicles sold in NYS will be electric."When your furnace breaks, which it inevitably does, we will have technology like heat pumps and others to replace it, so this for some New Yorkers might not occur until 2050," said Harris.By then, all replacements for gas appliances will be electric.By then, all new construction of high-rise buildings will need to be electric.By then, all new construction of low-rise buildings will need to be electric.

"I think it's important to note that this is a transition that isn't happening tomorrow, in many ways it's something that'll phase in over a series of decades," said Harris. That means your stoves, your heating will all make the switch as part of New York's Scoping plan, passed in December of 2022. "The change is here and we're excited to go about it, but it's one that will result in a cleaner and better future for all of us," said Doreen Harris, President and CEO of NYSERDA. Cars, buses, homes, workplaces and more if they're in New York State, they'll have to be powered by electricity. (WKBW) - In the decades to come, natural gas will be a thing of the past.
