2009-S6050 (ACTIVE) - Sponsor Memo

                                 BILL NUMBER:  S6050

 TITLE OF BILL :

An act to amend the public authorities law, in relation to energy
efficiency and clean energy initiatives of the power authority of the
state of New York, and providing for the repeal of such provisions
upon expiration thereof


 PURPOSE :

The purpose of this bill is to enhance the energy efficiency, clean
energy, energy service and green building programs administered by the
Power Authority of the State of New York (NYPA), to reduce energy
consumption and mitigate environmental impacts from energy usage
consistent with the State's energy and environmental policies.

 SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS :

Section 1 of the bill would add a new subdivision 16 to PAL § 1005.
Paragraph (a) of new subdivision 16 would provide and clarify that:
(1) as deemed feasible and advisable by NYPA's trustees, NYPA may
finance, design, develop, construct, implement and administer
energy-related projects, programs and services for any public entity
and customers of NYPA's low-cost power programs; (2) NYPA may consult

standards and other criteria established or adopted by other
organizations, including but not limited to the United States Green
Building Council under its Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design (LEED) programs, the Green Building Initiative's Green Globes
Rating System, and the American National Standards Institute; and (3)
NYPA may use note and bond proceeds and other authority funds to
finance projects and programs.

Paragraph (b) of new subdivision 16 would define terms applicable to
this subdivision.

Paragraph (c) of new subdivision 16 would authorize public entities
(which include any agency, public authority, public benefit
corporation, public corporation, municipal corporation, school
district, board of cooperative educational services, SUNY or CUNY four
year college, or community college) to enter into energy services
contracts with NYPA for energy-related projects, programs and
services, provided that NYPA issues and advertises written requests
for proposals from third-party providers of goods and services in
accordance with its established procurement policies, procedures and
guidelines. In addition, this provision provides that NYPA may not
contract with a third party provider if such provider is listed on a
debarment list maintained and published in accordance with New York
law.

Paragraph (d) of new subdivision 16 would: (1) authorize contracts for
energy efficiency, clean energy, energy services and green building
programs for up to thirty five years duration, provided that the
duration of any such contract does not exceed the expected useful life
of the facilities or equipment comprising such projects; (2) require
contracts to contain a standard provision that such contracts are
deemed executory only to the extent of the monies appropriated and
available for the purpose of the contract; and (3) authorize public
entities to grant NYPA access to property in order to allow the
construction, installation and operation of facilities and equipment
provided as part of the energy projects, programs and services.

In the case of a school district or board of cooperative educational
services, paragraph (d) of new subdivision 16 would provide that the
regulations promulgated by the Commissioner of Education would
continue to apply, except that a school district or board of
cooperative educational service may only enter into an energy services
contract with NYPA for such maximum term as is prescribed in the
regulations promulgated by the Commissioner of Education, or for the
useful life of the facilities or equipment being constructed,
installed or operated, whichever is less.

Paragraph (f) of new subdivision 16 would require NYPA to submit a
report on the activities of the program to the Governor, Speaker of
the Assembly, Temporary President of the Senate, Minority Leader of
the Senate, Minority Leader of the Assembly, the Chair of the Senate
Finance Committee, the Chair of the Assembly Ways and Means Committee,
the Chair of the Assembly Energy Committee and the Chair of the Senate
Energy Committee on or before January 31, 2012.

Section 2 of this bill would provide for an immediate effective date
and for the expiration three years after it becomes law.

 EXISTING LAW :

NYPA is currently authorized by various State enactments relating to
Petroleum Overcharge Restitution funds, the Clean Water/Clean Air Bond
Act of 1996 and other laws to undertake energy efficiency and clean
energy projects. PAL § 1005 was amended by Chapter 287 of the Laws of
2004 to authorize NYPA to make energy efficiency services and clean
energy technologies available to public and nonpublic elementary and
secondary schools throughout the State. Chapter 386 of the Laws of
2004 added a new subdivision 15 to PAL § 1005 authorizing NYPA to
provide similar services to certain military installations in New
York.

 LEGISLATIVE HISTORY :

This is a new bill.

 STATEMENT IN SUPPORT :

This bill would build upon the significant reductions in the
consumption of energy and the contributions to a cleaner environment
made possible by NYPA's energy efficiency, clean energy, energy
service and sustainable building programs, and make it easier for
public entities to implement such services and projects.

NYPA has invested more than $1 billion in energy-efficiency projects
at publicly owned facilities in New York State since 1987, through
direct implementation of projects and low-cost financing. Its energy
services programs have resulted in more than 1,560 completed projects
at 2,640 facilities, producing more than $102 million in annual
taxpayer savings. Since their inception, these programs have reduced
energy consumption in the State by over 900 gigawatt hours (GWh) and
prevented the emission of approximately 824,987 tons of greenhouse gas
emissions.

The expansion of NYPA's energy efficiency programs will also support
the State's key energy conservation initiatives, including the State's
"45 x 15" plan to meet 45 percent of its electricity needs through
improved energy efficiency and renewable sources by the year 20 5.
NYPA's work with State agencies, departments and authorities also
supports the goals of Executive Order No. 111, which requires agencies
to reduce energy consumption, while shifting to on-site use of clean
energy technologies.

This bill would also provide an efficient process for agencies,
municipalities, public authorities, public universities, public
entities, and customers of NYPA's low-cost power programs to avail
themselves of NYPA's expertise and financing, and authorize such
entities to enter into contractual arrangements directly with NYPA,
provided that NYPA issues and advertises a written request for
proposals from third party providers of goods and services in
accordance with NYPA's own procurement policies, procedures or
guidelines.

This bill would also assist local governments in implementing energy
conservation programs funded through the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act of 2009.

This bill would also clarify and confirm the authorization for NYPA's
sustainable or high performance building program and activities.

"Sustainable" refers to programs that are environmentally responsible
and resource-efficient throughout a building's life cycle. Sustainable
building practices can substantially reduce environmental impacts,
reduce operating costs, enhance building marketability, and improve
indoor air quality for building occupants. Much of NYPA's work in the
sustainable building area is associated with its energy
efficiency/clean energy work. For example, NYPA replaced its chilled
water plant at its offices in White Plains as an energy efficiency
measure, and implemented other measures that earned the facility LEED
(Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Existing Building Gold
status. The completed project is saving NYPA 4,704,764 kilowatt hours
(kWh) per year of electricity, amounting to a savings of $338,951
annually. The new equipment has reduced greenhouse gases by 3,034 tons
per year, and mitigates the CFCs that would otherwise be in the
refrigerants of the old chilled water plant.

Many of the public entities served by NYPA, such as the City of New
York, Office of General Services, and State University of New York,
wish to incorporate sustainable building program measures into the
energy service work that NYPA provides.  This legislation would make
it clear that NYPA may provide all aspects of sustainable development
services along with the other measures and services NYPA offers to
program participants.

 BUDGET IMPLICATIONS :

This bill would result in savings to the General Fund and to public
entities because implementation of energy efficiency and green
building measures will reduce building operating expenses.

 EFFECTIVE DATE :
This bill takes effect effect immediately and will expire three years
after it becomes law.
