UPDATE: March 4, 2021: The New York State Office of Renewable Energy Siting has published final rules governing how it will issue permits for major renewable energy projects. The framework sets standard operating conditions, streamlines the development process, and addresses recurring issues in siting and permitting. Renewables advocates say the final rules will help grow the state s clean energy economy and bring in tens of thousands of jobs. The updated process means projects will be able to move through the permitting process more quickly and efficiently, Julie Tighe, President of the New York League of Conservation Voters, said in a statement.

On March 3, 2021, the Office of Renewable Energy Siting (“ORES”) issued the much-anticipated final regulations implementing New York State’s new large-scale renewables siting and permitting process (“the Section 94-c process”).
