Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act
New York State CLCPA Goals
Disadvantaged Communities (DAC) Spend: The "Investments and Benefits Requirement" is a statewide directive which requires state agencies, authorities and entities to direct 35 percent of spending on clean energy, and/or energy efficiency investments toward DACs. To the extent practicable, agencies will aim to reach 40 percent of benefits of spending to go toward DACs. A DAC Investment is defined as:
- Place-based investments within DACs.
- Geographically dispersed low-income investments made toward households at or below 60 percent of the State Median Income (SMI) or are otherwise categorically eligible for low-income programs.

TBtu Savings: New York State has a goal to achieve 185 trillion British thermal units (TBtu) of cumulative energy savings in buildings from 2015 to 2025.
Emissions Reduction: Reducing economy-wide greenhouse gas emissions. With a state target of 40% emissions reduction below 1990 levels by 2030. PSEG Long Island incentivizes heat pumps and electric vehicle chargers to support this goal.
Energy Storage: 6,000 MWs of energy storage capacity in NYS by 2030.

* PSEG Long Island contributions are reflected incrementally for each year. This data will be updated every 6 months.
** DAC investments include both Place-based investments as well as Low-income investments. DAC Data is subject to change pending the finalization of the statewide reporting guidance and data collection tool. The data is currently compiled based on draft guidance.
*** Whole House Heat Pumps include Geothermal, cold climate Air Source Heat Pumps, and Air to Water Heat Pumps. Heat Pump Pool Heaters and Heat Pump Water Heaters are not included.
**** PSEG Long Island is unsure if the NYS goal is to be tracked in AC or DC. We are reporting in MW AC. “BTM” = Behind the Meter, “FTM” = Front of the Meter, and “AC” = Alternating Current.
