New York unveils energy storage delivery plan
New York City Governor Kathy Hochul (pictured) has actually announced a new framework for the state to run 6GW of energy storage by 2030. The roadmap was sent by the New York city State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) and the New York City State Department of Public Service (DPS) to the general public Service Commission for consideration of approval. It proposes a number of recommendations to broaden New York city's energy storage programs to unlock the quick development of renewable resource throughout the state and also strengthen grid dependability and consumer durability, NYSERDA said. If accepted, the roadmap will support a buildout of storage space implementations estimated to reduce projected future statewide electric system prices by virtually $2bn, along with more benefits in the form of boosted public health because of minimized exposure to harmful fossil fuel pollutants. It proposes the application of NYSERDA-led programs in the direction of acquiring an added 4.7 GW of new storage space projects across the bulk (large-scale), retail (community, commercial and also industrial), as well as residential energy storage space sectors in New York city State. These future procurements, incorporated with the 1.3 GW of existing energy storage space already under contract with the state as well as relocating in the direction of commercial operation, will allow New York city to achieve the 6GW goal by 2030. NYSERDA mentioned that, together with the DPS, it very carefully assessed potential market reforms and also affordable procurement mechanisms to achieve 6GW as well as identified research and development requires to speed up technology development, especially for long-duration storage. The agencies additionally thought about approaches to energy storage growth in a way that advances the elimination of the state's most polluting fossil fuel nuclear power plant, as proposed by Governor Hochul in her 2022 State of the State address. Governor Hochul said: "Storing clean, renewable energy as well as supplying it where and when it is needed is one of one of the most important obstacles we must overcome to minimize statewide emissions, specifically from traditional fossil fuel peaker plants. " This roadmap will certainly act as a version for various other states to adhere to by making best use of the use of renewable energy while making it possible for a reliable as well as resilient transformation of the power grid. NYSERDA president as well as head of state Doreen Harris said: "Accelerating the fostering of energy storage space across the state will certainly allow a lot more wind and also solar power to be integrated right into our electrical grid, while boosting air quality for many communities traditionally influenced by fossil fuel-generated pollution. " Structure on New York city's development under Governor Hochul's management, this roadmap will provide a pathway for the sector to partner with us to advance the next wave of projects that will assist New Yorkers recognize the benefits of this important technology." Department of Public Service ceo Rory Christian said: "Governor Hochul is a vital fan of energy storage space advancement in New York State.

Solar, storage win big in $2.7 bn New York tender
New York City Governor Kathy Hochul (pictured) has announced awards for 22 large-scale solar and also energy storage projects that are anticipated to deliver enough clean, budget friendly energy to power over 620,000 New York homes for at the very least 20 years. As the state's largest land-based renewable energy procurement to date, these projects will stimulate over $2.7 bn (EUR2.5 bn) in private investment as well as develop over 3,000 short- and also lasting jobs throughout the state. The honors speed up progression to exceed New York's goal to obtain 70% of the state's electricity from renewable sources by 2030 on the path to a zero-emission grid by 2040 as needed by Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act. These awards are anticipated to strengthen the state's current pipe of renewables to power over 66% of New York city's electricity from renewable sources. Hochul stated: "Today's investments will certainly put us on a path to making New York city a greener area to live while likewise developing new jobs and also stimulating economic developmen. " These projects will certainly enable us to not simply satisfy but exceed our objective of obtaining 70% of our electricity from renewable energies and will certainly additionally seal New York as a national leader in the battle versus climate change." Among those selected were five Boralex solar farms completing 540MW of generation and also 77MW of storage. Boralex president Patrick Decostre stated: "Today's statement solidifies Boralex's role in New York city State's power market throughout this essential expansion of renewable electricity generation. " These projects display the calculated, creative strategies to solar farm development and also community engagement our reputation is improved. " I am proud of the Boralex group and also their efforts to develop clean, affordable energy." To additionally New York city State's objective of 70% renewable electricity by 2030, NYSERDA launched its 5th request for proposals April 2021 for the purchase of New York Tier-1 Eligible Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). RECs represent renewable electricity entering the electricity grid. Each REC equals the ecological qualities of one megawatt hour of electricity produced from a renewable resource, such as solar. The statement begins a procedure for Boralex as well as NYSERDA to perform 20-year Renewable Energy Standard Agreements for the purchase of RECs associated with the power production of the chosen projects. The power connected with the RECs should be consumed within New York State. The price of the RECs will be indexed to a referral power and capacity rate, which will certainly hedge the projects' seller energy and also capacity revenues, preventing a demand for the projects to obtain a different long term offtake agreement for the sale of power and capacity. NYSERDA president and chief executive Doreen M Harris stated: "The large-scale solar projects revealed today, consisting of five Boralex projects, bring New York city State significantly closer to reaching our clean energy objectives and also transitioning us toward a zero-emission electricity system. " NYSERDA anticipates dealing with Boralex to guarantee these projects are sophisticated sensibly and with local input to permit host communities to understand the crucial jobs and also financial investments that will originate from these solar farms."

Fulfilling objectives as well as making tasks This very first solicitation has the prospective to bring New York State midway towards its objective of 9,000 megawatts of overseas wind by 2035, while additionally giving substantial headway towards New York State's required to protect 70% of the state's electrical energy from renewable energy by 2030. Both solicitations are anticipated to create roughly $7 billion in straight investments in about 4,500 short as well as long-term work, which the Governor's office shares that it is leaning on, at least partly, to jumpstart and also drive economic development as part of resuming and also reimagining New York State's economic climate in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. Solicitation specifics The land-based sustainable solicitation is in fact divided right into 2 classifications: projects being procured by NYSERDA and those being procured by NYPA. NYSERDA's part asks for the growth of Tier-1 qualified renewable energy projects that will certainly generate 1.6 million MWh or even more yearly. Any type of project that can be certified as a Tier 1 eco-friendly technology and got in operation after January 1, 2015 or by November 30, 2022, with the alternative for expansions to November 30, 2025 that fulfills the kWh goal is eligible. The land-based projects chosen will certainly be the fastest to building and also NYSERDA hopes to alert the granted developers in early 2021. As for NYPA, that solicitation is seeking projects that will certainly generate 2 million MWh or more yearly, with a generation capacity between 20 MW to 25 MW or 100 MW+. The 2 million MWh goal can be served by one or multiple projects. The agreements offered will be for a packed item which will certainly consist of power, capacity as well as RECs. The picked projects are expected ahead online between 2021 and 2024, and also winning bidders will certainly be introduced by year end 2020.
