The fiscal situation in New York hasn't improved - and still, the Public Service Commission last week announced ongoing support and incentives for renewable energy projects in New York, approving $429 million over the next five years. Funding from the Renewable Portfolio Standard will incentivize customer-sited renewables ($279 million) and large-scale solar photovoltaic, anaerobic digester and fuel cell projects ($150 million). In times of severe economic distress, with major state services being cut back, New York continues to show its commitment to meeting its renewable energy goals.

Renewables can be a cost-effective, beneficial component of any project, and the State and Federal governments are providing major incentives. Can your project afford to leave money on the table?

Often, we hear from clients who are well underway with project planning, have heard there are incentives and good reasons for making renewables part of their project - but they've already ordered their backup power, they've already set up their power purchase, they've already constrained the site. So in the end, despite best intentions, the best they'll end up with is some supplementary solar or high-efficiency appliances. They've missed the opportunity to green the project, and they've missed out on the long-term savings they could achieve.
