A 7783 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to letters of credit for siting permits

This bill directs New York's Office of Renewable Energy Siting and Electric Transmission (ORES) to create a standardized procedure for processing letters of credit required as financial security for renewable energy project siting permits. It specifically requires ORES to develop this procedure and make it available to any municipality that chooses to use ORES to handle such financial security in their permitting process. The bill does not change the requirement for financial security but establishes a clear, centralized process for its administration. This affects renewable energy developers seeking permits and local governments managing permitting under the state's siting program.
