With a BESS facility possible in Croton's future......A reader has passed along the following information; most of which we have been able to confirm. I leave it to those with an interest to pursue further:Westchester County currently has nine active BESS moratoriums, the highest of any county in New York according to Carina Energy’s BESS Moratorium Monitor. Westchester County municipalities with BESS moratoriums--Carina Energy’s database does not list all nine Westchester jurisdictions in a single public-facing summary, but several Westchester municipalities are individually documented in public records and databases:
Town of Cortlandt — Active moratorium (Dec 2025–July 2026)
Town of Yorktown — Active ban (May 2025)
Town of Mount Pleasant — Active ban (Sept 2025)
These three are explicitly documented in the EticaAG BESS Restrictions Database. The remaining Westchester municipalities with moratoriums are confirmed only at the county‑level count (9 total) via Carina Energy’s statewide tracking.
Because Carina Energy’s full municipal list is behind a subscription, only some Westchester entries are publicly visible.
