The Ravenswood "peaker plant" is NYC’s largest power plant, designed to supply 20% of the city's peak electricity needs. Ravenswood, which was established in 1963, is adjacent to the nation’s largest public housing complex, Queensbridge, which has been around since 1939. The establishment of Ravenswood sheds light on systemic racism and environmental injustices. Queensbridge is home to 7,000 residents — 40% of which live below the poverty line and 96% of which are nonwhite. 

Ravenswood's "peakers" emit close to 30 times more nitrogen oxide than cleaner power plants, according to @nysdec. Due to New York State law, this "peaker plant" will be decommissioned by 2023 and will be replaced by renewable energy sources. This will provide residents of Queensbridge with cleaner air and improved livelihoods. 

The essential power that Ravenswood provided will be replaced by solar and wind energy from Upstate New York, according to Greentech Media. The transmission line known as the Catskills Renewable Connector will link up with the Ravenswood facility in Long Island City, Queens.

According to @popsci Ravenswood / Big Allis serves as a global example of how fossil fuel plants can adapt to the clean energy transition and provide reliable power to a densely populated area while sourcing from renewables.
