Description
NYSERDA’s Affordable Multifamily Program Upstate (AMP Up), PON 6088, combines financial incentives, technical assistance, and concierge support for existing affordable multifamily buildings. Operating under the 2026–2030 Low-to-Moderate Income Energy Efficiency and Building Electrification Order, it helps building owners and managers address retrofit costs, design complexity, and project delivery while reducing energy consumption and utility bills.
Supported work ranges from refrigerator replacements and straightforward in-unit installations to weatherization, heat-pump electrification, and comprehensive deep retrofits. Resilience enhancements can supplement qualifying energy upgrades to address flooding, extreme heat, and wind. Participating contractors guide projects from application and assessment through construction oversight and closeout. Building size determines the upgrade pathway, cost-coverage cap, and payment schedule.
