Industrial Process Efficiency Performance Based Incentive
The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority’s (NYSERDA) Industrial Process Efficiency Incentive is provided to applicants to offset the costs of projects focused on increasing productivity, increasing process efficiency, reducing waste, and reducing energy consumption per unit of production. Incentives are determined by multiplying the annual energy savings by the rates below. Projects involving first of their kind or innovative process improvements should also review NYSERDA’S Industrial Process and Product Innovation Program.
