NNYEDF (Proceeds) Program
New York Power Authority (NYPA)
About This Grant
The Northern New York Power Proceeds program is made possible through net earnings resulting from the sale of unused economic development hydropower generated at NYPA's St. Lawrence-FDR Power Project. The Northern New York Power Proceeds Act, passed in December 2014, allows NYPA to deposit the net earnings from the market sale of unallocated St. Lawrence County Economic Development Power into a fund, which can then be used to support economic development projects in the County. Eligible projects are considered under five funding tracks, including Training & Workforce Development: Training and related programs that will provide the necessary skills to meet industry needs. Ideally, projects should focus on concentrations of underemployed and underrepresented populations in the Region and provide programs for those populations.
