NYS Leads the Nation with Largest Renewable Energy Procurement

Governor Andrew M. Cuomo announced the Clean Climate Careers Initiative which includes the largest clean energy procurement by a state in U.S. history. The investment of up to $1.5 billion will help New York State reach its goal of 50% of the State’s electricity coming from renewable sources, such as solar and wind, by 2030 and create thousands of clean energy jobs.

Building a More Sustainable New York

It starts with the actions that individual communities take to create better places to work and live. The Clean Energy Communities Program recognizes and rewards village, town, city, and county governments in New York State for reducing greenhouse gases and implementing clean energy. This program provides tools, resources, and technical assistance to help local governments implement clean energy actions that can save taxpayer dollars, create jobs, and improve the environment.
