AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Offshore Wind Legal Fight: New York Gov. Kathy Hochul and AG Letitia James announced a lawsuit with Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Rhode Island, and Vermont challenging the Trump administration’s March deal with TotalEnergies to cancel a major offshore wind lease and pay nearly $1 billion in taxpayer money—while requiring the company to shift investment to oil and gas and pledge not to build new U.S. wind. Climate Science in Court: AG William Tong joined a broader push to stop the Federal Judicial Center from removing a peer-reviewed climate science reference guide from its judicial manual, arguing climate-related cases are only growing. Heat Pump Reality Check: With warmer weather returning, a new explainer weighs whether heat pumps are worth the upfront cost in Rhode Island’s region—highlighting efficiency gains but noting possible electrical upgrades and utility-rate impacts. EV Cost Pressure: A new report finds EVs cost about 42% more to insure than gas cars overall, with Rhode Island showing one of the biggest insurance gaps. Weather Watch: Rhode Island is set for a sunny rebound day around the upper 60s to low 70s, with dry conditions. Space-Weather Moment: NASA confirmed the weekend sonic boom was a natural meteor fireball about 5 feet wide that broke up over New England and fell into Cape Cod Bay.
