New York State Energy Research and Development Authority Research Projects' Update. Project Status as of March 31, 1998

The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) is a public benefit corporation created by the State Legislature in 1975 as the entity primarily responsible for planning and conducting energy R&D programs. NYSERDA manages a comprehensive energy research program to help secure the State's future energy supplies, while protecting environmental values and promoting economic growth. NYSERDA's R&D program emphasizes: Promoting energy efficiency to encourage economic development; Expanding use of New York State's own renewable energy resources; and Reducing or mitigating adverse environmental effects associated with energy production and use. NYSERDA's R&D program has five major areas: Industry, Buildings, Energy Resources, Transportation, and Environment. NYSERDA organizes projects within these five major areas based on energy use and supply, and end-use sectors. As a result, cross-cutting issues such as waste management, energy products, and renewable energy technologies, among others, are addressed in several areas of the R&D program. While projects span the entire basic-to-applied research continuum, R&D of technologies and services with potential for timely commercialization and application in New York State are emphasized. The strategies are to adapt federal and other public and private research results for application in New York State and to identify and fill research gaps to meet the State's energy, environmental, and economic needs. Working with New York contractors on energy-related growth opportunities is part of NYSERDA's effort to produce maximum benefits for the State's citizens and businesses.
