NY-Sun announced the addition of 83 MW of capacity to the current Upstate Commercial/Industrial MW Block (Block 21) at $.05/W. Details are available on NY-Sun’s Dashboards and Incentives page.

This will be the final addition of capacity to the Upstate Commercial/Industrial MW Block structure, pending consideration of NYSERDA’s “Beyond 10 GW Proposal” by the New York Public Service Commission. We will keep all stakeholders up to date on any developments.
