Research project summaries provide brief descriptions of research projects supported by New York State Energy Research and Development Authority’s (NYSERDA) Technology and Business Innovation portfolio of programs. Each summary includes the research project’s background, objective, and expected benefits. Closed research projects also include a section on the project results.

IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER BEFORE USING DATA. This dataset backcasts estimated modeled savings for a subset of 2007-2012 completed projects in the Home Performance with ENERGY STAR® Program against normalized savings calculated by an open source energy efficiency meter available at https://www.openee.io/. Open source code uses utility-grade metered consumption to weather-normalize the pre- and post-consumption data using standard methods with no discretionary independent variables. The open source energy efficiency meter allows private companies, utilities, and regulators to calculate energy savings from energy efficiency retrofits with increased confidence and replicability of results. This dataset is intended to lay a foundation for future innovation and deployment of the open source energy efficiency meter across the residential energy sector, and to help inform stakeholders interested in pay for performance programs, where providers are paid for realizing measurable weather-normalized results. To download the open source code, please visit the website at https://github.com/openeemeter/eemeter/releases

D I S C L A I M E R:
Normalized Savings using open source OEE meter. Several data elements, including, Evaluated Annual Elecric Savings (kWh), Evaluated Annual Gas Savings (MMBtu), Pre-retrofit Baseline Electric (kWh), Pre-retrofit Baseline Gas (MMBtu), Post-retrofit Usage Electric (kWh), and Post-retrofit Usage Gas (MMBtu) are direct outputs from the open source OEE meter.

Home Performance with ENERGY STAR® Estimated Savings. Several data elements, including, Estimated Annual kWh Savings, Estimated Annual MMBtu Savings, and Estimated First Year Energy Savings represent contractor-reported savings derived from energy modeling software calculations and not actual realized energy savings. The accuracy of the Estimated Annual kWh Savings and Estimated Annual MMBtu Savings for projects has been evaluated by an independent third party. The results of the Home Performance with ENERGY STAR impact analysis indicate that, on average, actual savings amount to 35 percent of the Estimated Annual kWh Savings and 65 percent of the Estimated Annual MMBtu Savings. For more information, please refer to the Evaluation Report published on NYSERDA’s website at: http://www.nyserda.ny.gov/-/media/Files/Publications/PPSER/Program-Evaluation/2012ContractorReports/2012-HPwES-Impact-Report-with-Appendices.pdf.

Gas utility service boundaries in NYS.

NYSERDA deployed Emergency Generators and Transfer Switches at Retail Gas Stations as part of the Fuel-NY initiative through its Gas Station Back-up Power Program and Permanent Generator Program using FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant Program funding. This dataset is a complete listing of all installations under the two programs, which ran from 6/1/2013 through 1/26/2019. This dataset contains business names, locations, and the type of installation for program participants.

These efforts improved the resiliency of the retail gasoline system in the downstate New York area by providing back up power options to gas stations.

These stations have either the capability to easily accept backup power or have a backup generator permanently installed on site. The equipment allows the stations to mitigate the effects of power outages, increase the availability of fuel, and support first responders during and after emergencies and severe weather events. Additional socioeconomic benefits are achieved by supporting residents and early recovery efforts with continued access to fuel as well as food, grocery, and necessary household items, increasing the resiliency capabilities of their communities.

The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) offers objective information and analysis, innovative programs, technical expertise, and support to help New Yorkers increase energy efficiency, save money, use renewable energy, accelerate economic growth, and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.

This dataset includes all solar photovoltaic projects installed at State Parks or Historic Sites since the first project was installed in 2012. It includes the year of completion, Park region, facility name, project title, whether the project is grid-connected or off-grid, system capacity in kilowatts (1,000 watts), and the utility company for that facility.

This dataset includes details for each wildland fire recorded after 2007 under the jurisdiction of the DEC NYS Forest Rangers. Earlier wildfires (1975-2007) under the jurisdiction of NYS DEC Forest Rangers can be found in the historical wildfire dataset. That dataset was formatted for use with FireFamily Plus. Each wildfire controlled or prescribed fire conducted by NYS DEC Forest Rangers is documented as a single incident in this database.

Data regarding water withdrawals is collected by New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC). The reporting requirements have expanded since collection began in 1990. Data is currently collected in accordance with the requirements of ECL 15-1501. ECL 15-1501 requires a DEC permit and annual usage reporting for all facilities using water for any purpose and having the capacity to withdraw 100,000 gallons or more per day of surface or groundwater. These facilities may or may not be permitted with other agencies that regulate water supplies in New York State. This dataset begins with 2009 data and includes facility name, town, county and withdrawal information.

The dataset contains contact and description information for local supply chain organizations, offshore wind developers, and original equipment manufacturers that provide goods and services to support New York State’s offshore wind industry. To request placement in this database, or to update your company’s information, please visit NYSERDA’s Supply Chain Database webpage at https://www.nyserda.ny.gov/All-Programs/Programs/Offshore-Wind/Economic-Opportunities/Supply-Chain-Database to submit a request form.

The Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) is a multi-state cap-and-trade mechanism where polluters of greenhouse gas emissions must either reduce emissions or purchase emissions allowances. New York State allocates funds received from selling allowances to the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) to manage programs aimed at reducing fossil fuel consumption. The New York State RGGI Funds dataset provides the amount and category of funds received by the State from selling emissions allowances.

The preferred citation when using this dataset is: Stevens, A., & Lamie, C., Eds. (2024). New York State Climate Impacts Assessment: Understanding and preparing for our changing climate. The New York State Climate Impacts Assessment is an investigation into how climate change will affect New York State’s communities, ecosystems, and economy. The data and information presented will help New Yorkers plan and prepare for the impacts of climate change. The assessment also strives to show how addressing climate change provides opportunities to enhance equity and reduce the vulnerability of those most at risk.

As part of the assessment, Columbia University developed climate change projections for temperature and precipitation, extreme events, degree days, and sea level rise, downscaled to 12 regions of New York State. This dataset includes those projections of future climate conditions in New York State, for the 2030s through 2100.
