Power Authority, New York

Mission

As the nation’s largest state public power organization, the primary mission of the New York Power Authority (NYPA) is to power the economic growth and competitiveness of New York State by providing customers with low-cost, clean, reliable power, and the innovative energy infrastructure and services they value.

Budget Highlights

NYPA, through its subsidiary, the Canal Corporation, will continue to maintain, operate, develop and make capital improvements to the 524-mile navigable waterway, which includes 57 locks, 17 lift bridges, numerous dams, reservoirs and water control structures. The Executive Budget includes reappropriations of $4.3 million to fund the Canal System Development Fund. Revenues collected from canal tolls and other user fees are deposited into the Canal System Development Fund and, in accordance with the State Constitution, used exclusively for the canals.

The FY 2022 Executive Budget includes appropriations of $86 million related to the State's repayment of funds previously transferred by NYPA to the State, and a $31.4 million reappropriation to sustain the Erie Canalway segment of the Empire State Trail.
