Governor David A. Paterson today announced that $10 million in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funding is now available through a competitive statewide solicitation for solar energy projects in New York State. The funding is available through NYSERDA’s State Energy Program (SEP) to fund the installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems. Additionally, Governor Paterson announced that the New York Power Authority (NYPA) is expected to make a formal request for proposals later this year for a 100-megawatt solar initiative, which would increase the State’s current installed solar capacity five-fold.

“The statewide interest in developing our solar energy production is proof that New York is fertile ground for the clean energy economy. Not only will these projects put New Yorkers back to work, but they will help cut down energy costs and reduce greenhouse gas emissions,” said Governor Paterson.
The two programs will contribute to Governor Paterson’s goal of meeting 45 percent of the State’s electricity needs through improved energy efficiency and renewable energy by 2015. It is estimated that the expanded use of clean energy technologies will create some 50,000 new jobs in New York. Additionally, the push to increase New York.s renewable energy production is a critical step to help the State achieve the Governor’s goal of reducing current greenhouse gas emissions from all sources within the State by 80 percent below levels emitted in 1990 by the year 2050.Read Full Article
