About Us
Learn About NYPA
NYPA is the largest state public power organization in the nation, operating 17 generating facilities and more than 1,550 circuit-miles of transmission lines. More than 80 percent of the electricity NYPA produces is clean, renewable hydropower. NYPA finances its operations through the sale of bonds and revenues earned in large part through sales of electricity.
VISION2030 Renewed

VISION2030 Renewed is NYPA and Canals’ multipronged commitment to driving New York State’s clean energy future. This updated strategic plan is not just a reflection of where we have been, but a clear directive on how we will continue to lead in the years ahead, leveraging both our historical strengths and our newly expanded capabilities.

Transmission
NYPA serves New Yorkers by bringing clean, reliable energy to where it's needed most. Our expertise in development, operations and maintenance is needed to effectively invest in, develop and operate an advanced, reliable transmission system.
NYPA Renewables
Through the 2023-24 enacted state budget, NYPA received additional authority to develop, own and operate new renewable energy generation projects, including partnering with private entities. In early 2025, it published its first NYPA Renewables Strategic Plan.
