The awards total more than 2,100 MW of solar and almost 130 MW of storage capacity, and are the state’s largest land-based renewable energy procurement to date. The projects could result in more than $2.7 billion in private investment.

A statement from the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) said that the weighted-average all-in development cost would be $63.08.MWh. Payments by NYSERDA under the awards are expected to begin once projects have obtained all required permits and approvals and become operational.
