A08595 Memo:

NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY
MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF LEGISLATION
submitted in accordance with Assembly Rule III, Sec 1(f)
 
BILL NUMBER: A8595A
 
SPONSOR: Zebrowski
  TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the public authorities law, in relation to authorizing the New York state energy research and development authority to adminis- ter a program to provide grants related to switching residences to elec- tric heat pumps   PURPOSE: This bill would authorize NYSERDA to establish and implement a Delivered Fuels Replacement Program to provide grants or loans for residential homes to transition from delivered fuels heating to efficient electric heat pumps.   SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section 1: Creates a new subdivision 27 to section 1854 of the public service law to authorize NYSERDA to establish and implement a Delivered Fuels Replacement Program to provide grants or loans to transition delivered fuels residential homes to efficient electric heat pumps. Section 2: Establishes the effective Date   JUSTIFICATION: Approximately 1.8 million New York households use delivered fuels, including fuel oil and propane furnaces and water heaters. The residents of New York state consume more heating oil than any other state in the country; Transitioning homes on delivered fuels to electrified ones will yield significant economic, health and environmental benefits. 98% of New York households on delivered fuels would save money by elec- trifying space heating with the average household saving $1,451 per year, representing $3 billion in potential savings every year. Electrifying delivered fuel space heating is the highest impact residen- tial decarbonization action New York can take; doing so would eliminate 34-55% more carbon pollution than electrifying the same number of gas furnaces. This legislation will authorize NYSERDA to establish and implement a program focused on providing grants and loans for residential homes to transition from delivered fuels to efficient electric heat pumps.   LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: New Bill.   FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: TBD   EFFECTIVE DATE: Immediately.
