Reports
New York Energy Policy Institute Project
The New York Energy Institute Project report explores the establishment of a New York Energy Policy Institute (NYEPI) designed to bring together the knowledge-base and expertise found at New York’s public and private institutions of higher education to provide analysis, insights, and guidance to State decision makers on important energy technology and policy issues. This report contains three key elements:
- Directory of institutions and faculty conducting energy-related research in New York State;
- An analysis of existing state and federal models that involve the use of academicians to support energy and environmental policy decision making; and,
- Recommendations for establishing an entity such as NYEPI in New York State.
Energy Patterns and Trends
In January 2009, the Energy Analysis program published Patterns and Trends - New York State Energy Profiles: 1993-2007 (523kb .pdf), a comprehensive storehouse of energy statistics and data on energy consumption, supply sources, and price and expenditure information for New York State. For a bound copy of this report, please call Kathleen Brust at 518-862-1090, ext. 3345.
Fast Facts
The Energy Analysis program maintains a comprehensive set of New
York State-specific energy statistics, as well as analytical
capabilities to examine the wide range of energy issues that confront
New York by providing staff support to New York's Energy Planning
Board.
Natural Gas Energy Efficiency Resource
Development Potential in New York - October 2006
This study estimated the natural gas efficiency potential in New
York for the 10-year period between 2007 and 2016; five years of
gas efficiency programs and five years of post-program market effects.
The study estimated the potential to reduce natural gas consumption
resulting from cost-effective energy efficiency, evaluated and suggested
natural gas efficiency programs for implementation, estimated natural
gas efficiency potential resulting from the suggested programs,
and assessed the potential impact of the proposed programs on the
natural gas prices. The study scope included all applicable natural
gas efficiency technologies, with the exception of fuel switching,
electricity generation measures, and combined heat and power technologies.
Additionally, the study addressed efficiency potential from all
natural gas end-users in the buildings sector. The study analyzed
more than 2,000 distinct efficiency measures, consisting of approximately
150 different technologies and practices applied to numerous facility
types and market.
Petroleum Infrastructure Study - September
2006
This study characterizes the distillate and residual fuel oil
infrastructure on Long Island, the New York City metropolitan area,
New York Harbor (including relevant facilities located in New Jersey),
and the Hudson River corridor as far north as Albany and Rensselaer.
The study identifies major sources of fuel supplies and the associated
flow paths into New York, inventory patterns, characterizes the
status of storage facilities, assesses the capability of the supporting
transportation infrastructure, characterizes the competing uses
for distillate and residual fuel oil, and identifies contingency
measures to mitigate potential fuel shortfalls. The study may be
used to support regulatory and policy initiatives by the New York
State Public Service Commission (PSC) related to interruptible gas
customers. It also advances knowledge and understanding of the role
of distillate and residual fuel oil in meeting the State's heating
and electricity needs, and supports NYSERDA's Energy Emergency responsibility.
Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Resource
Development Potential in New York State - Final Report - August
2003
Volume
One: Summary Report [955 KB.pdf]
NYSERDA commissioned this study of the long-range potential for energy
efficiency and renewable energy technologies to displace fossil-fueled
electricity in New York. The study examined the potential available
from existing and emerging efficiency technologies and practices to
lower end-use electricity requirements in residential, commercial,
and industrial buildings. The study also estimated renewable electricity
generation potential from biomass, fuel cells, hydropower, landfill
gas, municipal solid waste, solar, and wind. The study assessed New
York's efficiency and renewable potential over three time horizons:
five years (through 2007), 10 years (through 2012), and 20 years (through
2022).
NYSERDA paper on Renewable Portfolio
Standard - February 2003
Pursuant to the objective in the 2002 State Energy Plan (page 1-39), NYSERDA has undertaken a preliminary investigation
into the feasibility of establishing a Statewide renewable portfolio
standard (RPS) for electricity generation, and how an RPS might
harmonize with a restructured and competitive electricity market
and the goals from planned State actions to promote renewable energy
development. The results of this preliminary investigation are included
in this paper on Renewable
Portfolio Standard.
The Ability to Meet Future
Gas Demands from Electricity Generation in New York State - July
2002
The study was initiated to address concerns about the adequacy
of the New York gas delivery infrastructure for simultaneously meeting
traditional gas demands and future gas demands for electric generation.
These concerns have stemmed from existing delivery constraints in
the downstate region, forecasted demand growth among traditional
gas consumers, and the expectation that gas demands among the electric
generation sector will grow rapidly as new gas-fired power plants
are built to support increasing electric demands.

Electric
Reliability Study - December 2000
In addition, the Energy Planning Board prepared a Report on the Reliability of New York's
Electric Transmission and Distribution Systems (442kb .pdf)
at the request of the State Legislature. The report, issued in December
2000, examines how the reliability of the transmission and distribution
systems would be affected by several factors now and in the future.
LNG Study - November 1998
The Energy Planning Board also prepared a Report
on Issues Regarding the Existing New York Liquefied Natural Gas
Moratorium (305kb .pdf). Issued in November 1998, the report
was prepared to provide the Governor and the Legislature with information
necessary to determine the need for further extension or modification
of the existing State moratorium on the siting of new liquefied
natural gas facilities and intrastate transportation routes. |
