Working alongside New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA), HR&A designed, implemented and administered the New York Energy $mart Assisted Multifamily Program (AMP). AMP provides a range of technical and financial incentives to low and moderate income multifamily residential properties in New York State for capital projects involving energy efficiency improvements. The program reduces utility burdens for residents by improving the energy efficiency and energy management of the buildings in which they live. It provides owners of affordable housing with free technical assistance, access to low-cost financing, and, in many cases, grants. Since its launch in 2000, the program has ramped up to serve a pipeline of 100,000 units and closed deals with a total value of over $191 million. AMP has been recognized as an exemplary low-income energy efficiency program by American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy.
