PARTNERSHIP FOR NEW YORK CITY
New York, New York
August 5, 2010
“The Cuomo energy plan has the right focus: the need for energy policies that reinforce job creation and economic growth. The development of new technologies through partnerships with business and universities will reduce the cost of power over the long term and stimulate business investment in New York, where energy costs are double the national average and a huge burden on business.”
The Partnership for New York City (www.pfnyc.org) is a network of business leaders dedicated to enhancing the economy of the five boroughs of New York City and maintaining the city’s position as the center of world commerce, finance and innovation. Partnership companies account for nearly 7 million American jobs and contribute over $740 billion to the national GDP.
