 AN ACT to require the New York state  energy  research  and  development
   authority  to  develop  recommendations regarding the establishment of
   microgrids

   THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
 
   Section 1.  The New York state energy research and development author-
 ity, in consultation with the department of public service and the divi-
 sion of homeland security and emergency services, shall prepare a report
 including  recommendations regarding the establishment of microgrids for
 protection of critical facilities in the state of New York. For purposes
 of this act, the term "microgrid" shall mean a group  of  interconnected
 loads and distributed energy resources within clearly defined electrical
 boundaries that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the
 grid  and can connect and disconnect from the grid to enable it to oper-
 ate in both grid-connected or island-mode.  Specifically, the  authority
 shall develop recommendations which include, but are not limited to, the
 following:
   (a)  Whether  microgrids  should  be  established  at hospitals, first
 responder headquarters, such as  police  and  fire  stations,  emergency
 shelters,  schools, water filtration plants, sewage treatment plants and
 other critical facilities in the state of New York;
   (b) The geographic areas in the state of New York where the establish-
 ment of microgrids should be a priority, based upon prior  severe  storm
 damage  and the consideration of disadvantaged communities as defined in
 subdivision 5 of section 75-0101 of the environmental conservation  law;
 and
   (c) Available or necessary funding mechanisms for the establishment of
 microgrids.
