It's not clearly laid out, but it appears that the $88bn is not what the city plans on spending, it's what we will all spend(including upgrading our homes). So the number sounds big, but may not really be costing all that much additionally. It's so tough to say with these things. Are we scrapping working systems and replacing with green, or waiting until they are end of life, then just adding the additional cost of a greener replacement vs standard?
