Bill > S01338

This bill amends the Public Authorities Law to expand the definition of industrial technologies by adding a new category of "clean environment and energy technologies" to existing remanufacturing technology classifications. Specifically, the bill introduces a seventh subparagraph that defines these new technologies as innovative methods involving pollution reduction, renewable resource energy generation and storage, and energy efficiency measures. The new definition includes advanced systems like smart grid technologies and automated energy control systems that use digital and information technologies to improve electric system efficiency, reliability, and security. The bill aims to broaden the recognition and potential support for emerging clean energy and environmental technologies by formally including them in the legal classification of industrial technologies. The amendment provides a more comprehensive framework for understanding and potentially supporting technological innovations in the clean energy sector. The bill will take effect immediately upon passage.
