Next Generation Energy Solutions and Investment
The Green Task Force is deeply committed to next generation energy solutions, and combing the globe to learn more about forward-thinking approaches to energy policy and best practices for the 21st century. The decarbonization road ahead won't be easy, but we believe that as the global energy system transforms, leaders across all sectors and around the world will move towards collaborating to accelerate an energy transition that creates positive outcomes for people and society.

The project titled, "Village of Ardsley, NY: Creating an Actionable Plan to Lower Municipal Emissions," was prepared by Paulina Dawidowska, Lia Hansen, Pieter Fildes, Manya Johnston-Ramirez at New York University (NYU) Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service, May 2023
NYU Capstone Project Proposes Plan to Lower the Village's Emissions
The Village of Ardsley seeks to reduce its emission by transitioning their municipal vehicle fleet into more sustainable alternatives. Environmental and health concerns are the driving forces behind Ardsley’s interest in making the transition. As a member of New York State’s Climate Smart Communities, Ardsley seeks to set emission reduction goals. The Village of Ardsley’s 2019 Inventory of Government Operations Greenhouse Gas Emissions Report found that the Village’s yearly emissions totaled 535 metric tons (MT) CO2e. The Village’s fleet was found to be the main contributor of those emissions, at 49% of total emissions, followed by the Village’s buildings, at 43% of emissions. Street lights and traffic signals contributed to 8% of emissions.
