Bill > A06798

This bill directs the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA), in collaboration with the Department of Environmental Conservation, to conduct a comprehensive feasibility study on carbon recapture, a technology designed to capture and store carbon dioxide emissions from industrial processes or power generation to reduce greenhouse gas contributions to climate change. The study will specifically analyze the potential impacts and costs associated with implementing carbon recapture technologies in New York State. NYSERDA is required to complete the study and issue a detailed report within one year of the bill's enactment, which must be submitted to the Governor, the Senate President, and the Assembly Speaker. The bill takes effect immediately, signaling the state's commitment to exploring innovative approaches to reducing carbon emissions and addressing climate change.
