ALBANY, New York — A longtime member of the state’s powerful utility regulator who has often raised concern about the implementation of New York’s climate targets is departing this month.
And Diane Burman has plenty to reflect on during her 11 years on the Public Service Commission.
She pushed for more details and transparency on the commission’s actions, worked to support and mentor other women in the energy sector, stayed active with the national association of utility regulators, and ran a marathon last year.

Ahead of leaving next month, Burman said New York is at a pivotal crossroads for its energy policy. And she has concerns about the pathway forward and ensuring reliability is a top priority.
