New York is one of nine states and five tribal nations that were awarded a combined total of $125 million as the seventh cohort of Grid Resilience State and Tribal Formula grants and will provide 15 percent matching funds through the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative as part of DOE’s grant requirements.
“NYSERDA is pleased to implement this federal grid-resilience grant that will provide an infusion of much-needed funding for critical grid-infrastructure upgrades, helping offset the costs to New Yorkers while reducing instances of electricity disruption for consumers,” Doreen Harris, president and CEO of NYSERDA, said in a statement. “Through this funding, we look forward to supporting projects that advance the transition to a zero-emission electric grid, update current systems, and reduce emissions by bringing clean energy to communities across the state, including those traditionally overburdened by pollution.”
