NYPA was granted authority to work with the state Public Service Commission (PSC) to establish the Renewable Energy Access and Community Help (REACH) program to provide renewable energy bill credits to low-income New Yorkers.
It will help support disadvantaged communities by enabling low-and moderate-income electricity consumers to receive bill credits through the production of renewable energy products developed by or for NYPA and other funding sources.

In addition to its expanded authority, NYPA has been given the responsibility to lead the Decarbonization Leadership Program, a decarbonization and electrification initiative announced by Gov. Kathy Hochul in October 2023.
We are leveraging NYPA’s energy services and engineering expertise to develop decarbonization action plans for 15 of the highest-emitting state facilities. This initiative includes developing energy and emissions profiles of the state’s largest carbon-emitting facilities, and decarbonization action plans that will guide state agencies on facility improvements to reduce carbon emissions.

NYPA is planning to cease fossil fuel generation at its small natural gas power plants by 2030, as long as reliability and environmental conditions are met. NYPA will make decisions on a plant-by-plant basis after receiving public comment.
In May of 2025, NYPA issued its Small Natural Gas Power Plant Transition Plan. Key components of the plan include conducting detailed emissions and air quality assessments with the New York Independent System Operator (NYISO), and working with the NYISO, Con Edison, and LIPA to assess system reliability impacts, and actively engaging with local communities and stakeholders. The plan will ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and maintain system reliability, paving the way for a resilient and sustainable energy future for New York State.
