An Industry Leader in Technology Development
Microturbine-based combined heat and
power plant—the first of its kind in New York—at the Lewiston wastewater
treatment plant.
The Power Authoritys efforts to develop innovative technologies for the
generation and transmission of electricity are redefining our role in the deregulated
electricity marketplace while benefiting our operations, our customers and the public.
Were drawing attention to new environmentally sound methods of generating kilowatts,
such as fuel cells, solar photovoltaic systems and wind turbines, because these forms of
"distributed generation"electricity sources that can be located close to a
customerwill play an increasingly
important role in the electricity industrys future.
We conduct research directed at NYPA facilities and work with our customers to
provide technical solutions that help them stay competitive. We also participate in
institutional research at the state and national levels.
Our technology development efforts are drawing national attention as we break new
ground in several areas, including transmission and generation of electricity,
energy storage, distributed generation and equipment monitoring and
diagnostics.
