The New Energy New York initiative, led by Binghamton University, is seizing on a unique and timely  opportunity for New York State to establish itself as leader in domestic battery and energy storage manufacturing.

New Energy New York was selected for funding under the Build Back Better Regional Challenge. The goal of the program, which is supported with $113 million in federal, state and partner funding, is to develop new facilities and resources in New York State to help the U.S. meet the demand for domestic battery products and create an important competitive edge for U.S. companies in battery development and manufacturing.

The growth rate of the energy storage industry is unprecedented, projected to create hundreds-of-thousands of jobs by 2030. NY-BEST and the New Energy New York partners are working to position New York to capitalize on this growth.
