NYPA hydroelectric power allocation leads to jobs creation

摘要

Hydropower allotments announced by New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York Power Authority (NYPA) will lead to more than 200 new jobs and US$190 million in capital investments. Under a plan approved by NYPA in March, five companies will share nearly 13 MW of power from the 2,525-MW Niagara project, allowing for expansion and job creation. "Low-cost hydropower is one of the most effective development tools that we have to create jobs in New York," Cuomo said. "These are smart investments in the region's economy."
