"With its plan for new nuclear reactors, the NYS Energy Plan simply would be a financial disaster for the state's ratepayers and taxpayers. Instead of facts, all the Plan and the nuclear proponents who support it, can offer is “hopium” (a combination of hope and opium meaning unfounded hope) as there is no evidence that the cost of new reactors be anywhere as low as they claim."

•There is no cost or safety analysis for the Governor’s 5-reactor plan.
•The 1000-page State Energy Plan has no cost analysis.
• NYSERDA contracted out an economic analysis that’s so flawed neither the state nor the contractor stands behind it.
