Fuel-NY Emergency Generators and Transfer Switches

NYSERDA deployed Emergency Generators and Transfer Switches at Retail Gas Stations as part of the Fuel-NY initiative through its Gas Station Back-up Power Program and Permanent Generator Program using FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant Program funding. This dataset is a complete listing of all installations under the two programs, which ran from 6/1/2013 through 1/26/2019. This dataset contains business names, locations, and the type of installation for program participants.

These efforts improved the resiliency of the retail gasoline system in the downstate New York area by providing back up power options to gas stations.

These stations have either the capability to easily accept backup power or have a backup generator permanently installed on site. The equipment allows the stations to mitigate the effects of power outages, increase the availability of fuel, and support first responders during and after emergencies and severe weather events. Additional socioeconomic benefits are achieved by supporting residents and early recovery efforts with continued access to fuel as well as food, grocery, and necessary household items, increasing the resiliency capabilities of their communities.

The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) offers objective information and analysis, innovative programs, technical expertise, and support to help New Yorkers increase energy efficiency, save money, use renewable energy, accelerate economic growth, and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.

纽约州能源研究与开发局（NYSERDA）在燃料-NY计划框架下，通过其加油站备用电源项目和永久发电机项目，利用联邦紧急管理署（FEMA）灾害减缓赠款计划资金，部署了应急发电机和转换开关。本数据集完整列出了两个项目下的所有安装情况，时间跨度为2013年6月1日至2019年1月26日。数据集包含企业名称、位置以及项目参与者的安装类型。这些举措通过为加油站提供备用电源选项，提高了纽约州下州地区的零售汽油系统的韧性。这些加油站要么具备轻松接受备用电源的能力，要么在站点上永久安装了备用发电机。该设备使加油站能够减轻停电的影响，增加燃料的可用性，并在紧急情况和严重天气事件期间及之后支持应急响应人员。通过支持居民和早期恢复工作，确保燃料以及食品、杂货和必需的家居用品的持续可用性，实现了额外的社会经济利益，并增强了其社区的韧性能力。纽约州能源研究与开发局提供客观信息和分析、创新项目、技术专长和支持，以帮助纽约居民提高能源效率、节省资金、使用可再生能源、加速经济增长并减少对化石燃料的依赖。欲了解更多关于NYSERDA项目的信息，请访问nyserda.ny.gov或关注我们的X、Facebook、YouTube或Instagram。
