NYPA Hydropower
The
Power Authority* sells large amounts of electricity generated at its Niagara Power Project to Western New York businesses. This hydropower is classified as either replacement power or expansion power, and is delivered through an arrangement with National Grid. Customers of this program must be located within 30 miles of the Niagara project (generally in Niagara and Erie Counties) or in Chautauqua County.
To qualify for Niagara hydropower, a company must have a minimum of 100 kw of new or additional electrical demand after completion of a new facility or an expansion of an existing one.
