The city will offer a one-stop shop resource through the NYC Accelerator for homeowners interested in solar installations and other renewable technologies, with additional support from NYSERDA.
- The NYC Accelerator serves as a central resource for local law 97 retrofits, solar installations, or other renewable energy projects.
- Homeowners can access information and assistance at nycaccelerator.com.
- In cases where the NYC Accelerator cannot provide needed support, coordination with NYSERDA under clean energy hubs is available.
- This setup aims to assist a variety of building types and owners in accessing available resources for renewable energy projects.

Separately, the city has announced a public solar NYC program that would provide low income homeowners with financing and technical assistance to install solar panels, what kind of intentional outreach and financial assistance will the city provide to selected homes?

We have the benefit of having a one stop shop resource for anyone who's interested in either doing local law 97 retrofits or installing solar or other renewable technologies with their home with an NYC accelerator.

That's a really helpful resource for us.

We also coordinate with NYSERDA under clean energy hubs to deal with a range of building types and owners to direct them to the available resources that we have.
