How the Program Works
NYSERDA helps cover the cost of engaging qualified consultants to identify energy saving opportunities and to plan the implementation of energy efficiency measures in leased spaces.
The consultant will do most of the work, but the tenant/landlord retains control over the scope of work and information such as the content and presentation needed to make decisions.
Eligible project types include opportunity assessments that identify opportunities to improve energy efficacy and planning assistance for implementing energy efficiency upgrades. NYSERDA will also consider other technical assistance projects that seek to identify and estimate energy savings so long as they meet certain criteria.
NYSERDA issues payment directly to the consultant, reducing out-of-pocket expenses. The applicable incentives a participant can receive under the program vary depending on the project type.
How to Apply
Consultants are responsible for submitting the applications and all deliverables.
Tenants and landlords can select a Qualified Consultant to enroll in the program.
