By proactively addressing infrastructure needs, New York aims to lower utility bills and support significant electrification.

A $405 million grant which will enhance the transmission and distribution system across Long Island and the Rockaways has been announced.

Funding should enable development and demonstration of scalable innovative LDES solutions to connect and provide stored renewable energy to the State’s grid.

Both projects were first awarded in 2019 as part of NYSERDA’s first offshore wind solicitation and were later re-awarded.

The projects include the installation of substation equipment, 28 underground and 69 overhead transformers, 938 sections of underground and overhead cable and 241 poles.

Two older cables were replaced with two 138 kV underground cables from a substation in Travis on the west side to a substation on Dongan Hills Avenue on the east side.

The company is set to construct or rebuild more than 1000 miles of transmission lines and 45 substations.
