With a mission of advancing clean energy innovation to combat climate change and improve the health and resiliency of New Yorkers, NYSERDA offers various incentive payout programs for new construction and rehabilitation projects to decrease their carbon footprints. Through improved envelope insulation, high efficiency HVAC, air sealing, renewable energy implementation, and more, NYSERDA provides developers with the resources to seek out newer innovative technologies with technical assistance to meet project goals.

 

As an official NYSERDA Multifamily Building Solutions Provider, KOW can assist your new construction and rehabilitation developments to achieve financial incentives for meeting energy savings targets. In addition to the base NYSERDA programs, we can also hold charrettes to determine any other NYSERDA programs your buildings may be eligible for, including but not limited to:
