Overview
In its Power Systems program, NYSERDA addresses Research, Development
and Demonstration needs associated with emerging distributed generation
technologies. These new technologies include electricity power storage;
management, communication, and interface technologies that supply
the electricity grid; and supplying building or industrial loads with
reliable, high quality power. The program undertakes projects designed
to improve technology performance and reduce non-technical impediments
and regulatory barriers to the widespread deployment of these new
technologies.
During the period of transition to competitive power marketing, NYSERDA
will coordinate with the State's power transmission and distribution
providers and technology developers in identifying research efforts
that could benefit consumers and provide more efficient, flexible,
reliable, and improved transmission and distribution system capabilities.
The program will continue to focus on technologies that offer consumers
environmentally superior electrical power options and plans to begin
addressing emerging distribution grid capacity and reliability problems.
Funding Opportunities
NYSERDA funds its projects through competitive solicitations, which
are issued periodically throughout each year. Check our
"Funding Opportunities" page for the latest information on past,
current and planned solicitations.
Staff Contacts
The Power Systems staff are available to provide assistance and answer
any questions you may have on our program opportunities. Full contact
information for our staff can be found on our
"Staff Contacts" page.
Project Examples
NYSERDA funds projects which address New York State and National
challenges which span a very wide range of power generation, transmission,
distribution, and conversion/storage issues. Examples of typical project
areas and past/current projects are listed below , with links to one-page
project abstracts. While these are illustrative of our research and
development activities, they are not all inclusive of our complete
areas of interest and activity in the power systems arena.
