Background
All over New York State NYPA is working closely with state and local governments, school districts, colleges, universities and others to conserve energy
and save taxpayers money.
Currently, NYPA is actively supporting the Governor’s “45 by 15” plan, which calls for New York State to meet 45 percent of its electricity needs through improved
energy efficiency and clean, renewable energy by 2015.
Starting in the mid 1980s, NYPA’s energy-efficiency services have grown to more than $1.4-billion invested to fund energy improvements at more
than 3,300 public and not-for-profit facilities.
When executing energy services projects, from start to finish, NYPA works with facility managers to identify, design and install new lighting and motors, as well as upgrades to heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems.
