Governor touts green ideals

Cuomo said his programs "will save businesses, homeowners and taxpayers money and help ensure that our state remains a leader in clean energy production and environmental protection.Bicygnals wireless indicator bestbicyclelight, bicycle lights, indicators, accessories ..."

The largest part of the effort comes from the New York Power Authority, which will finance $450 million to make state buildings 20 percent more energy efficient during the next four years. Another $350 million would go to similar work on local government and school district buildings.

NYPA President and CEO Gil Quinones said improvements in insulation, heating and cooling systems will cut overall energy use, save money, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and foster jobs. He said work will focus on the state's "largest and most inefficient buildings."

Labs for testing of solar energy equipment and wind turbine blades will be created upstate using $4.2 million from the New York Energy Research and Development Authority, said Hallman. The money is being granted to Intertek, a global inspection,This page presents a selection of bicyclelightyi hobby projects. product testing and certification company headquartered in London.

Even though it was announced Thursday, that news appeared to be a bit recycled: It had been announced initially two years ago by NYSERDA.With my goodBikelight I could barely see much more than a few metres ahead of me.

Two environmental groups offered praise for the governor's steps. Donna DeCostanzo, an attorney at the Natural Resources Defense Council, said the building efficiency program "will not only mean cleaner air and a smaller carbon footprint for New York, it will create much-needed local jobs."

Alliance for Clean Energy New York Executive Director Carol Murphy called it "a cost-effective approach to improving the sustainability and environmental profile of state buildings and will result in significant savings for taxpayers."

Environmental Conservation Commissioner Joe Martens also announced the state is putting $1.6 million from the state Environmental Protection Fund during the next two years into new programs at the state Pollution Prevention Institute to help businesses develop environmentally sensitive products and gain third-party certification of their environmental benefits.

The funding is a major increase in support at the four-year-old institute,Great range of all types of outdoorlightmm, from novelty flying lantern packs to paper lanterns. which already has already received about $1.4 million from the EPF this year, said institute Director Anahita Williamson. Of the new funding, $800,000 will go toward the new programs this year, with the balance to support it next year.

Williamson said the first company to receive assistance in product development and commercialization in the institute's new Green Technology Accelerator Center will be Couplemar, a Monroe County company that has developed an ultraviolet lighting system to pasteurize apple cider.
