Hollingsworth & Vose in Greenwich makes gas turbine filtration systems.\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The ReCharge NY (RNY) power program–
\na statewide initiative to lower electricity
\ncosts for key New York businesses–was
\nspotlighted recently by the New York Power
\nAuthority, which administers the program,
\nand Hollingsworth & Vose, a RNY customer
\nin Washington County.<\/p>\n

Hollingsworth & Vose in Greenwich is
\namong 48 business and nonprofit operations
\nin the Capital Region benefiting from the
\nprogram, which is directly linked to nearly
\n17,000 jobs in the area.<\/p>\n

Hollingsworth & Vose, undertaking significant
\ninfrastructure and equipment upgrades
\nat nearby specialty manufacturing facilities
\nin Easton and Greenwich, benefits from a
\nRNY allocation in direct support of 150 jobs,
\nstate officials said. The low-cost power also
\nis helping to facilitate the manufacturer’s
\ninvestment in energy efficiency upgrades.
\nH&V is a supplier of technically advanced
\nengines, high-efficiency and liquid filtration
\nmaterials, battery separator materials and
\nindustrial specialty paper. The company
\noperates manufacturing sites and research
\ncenters in North America, Europe and Asia.
\nIts Washington County facilities include the
\ntwo specialty paper manufacturing plants
\nalong with a research-and-development
\noperation.<\/p>\n

Recently, H&V hosted representatives of
\nNYPA and local elected and economic development
\nofficials at the company’s Easton
\nfacility. Located along the Battenkill River,
\nit has been operating since 1956 and began
\nreceiving RNY power in 2013, along with the
\nGreenwich facility.<\/p>\n

“It’s great to see help for this company
\nknowing how important their success and the
\njobs they provide are to families in Washington
\nCounty,” said state Sen. Betty Little. “I’ve
\nbeen pleased to support Governor Cuomo’s
\nReCharge NY program, an important economic
\ndevelopment tool that brings together public and private investment to help build a better future in communities across upstate.
\nProof positive is right here at this facility.”<\/p>\n

Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed legislation
\nin 2011 to launch RNY and help businesses
\nand other enterprises lower their operating
\ncosts and spur economic development.<\/p>\n

The program provides lower-cost power
\nfor businesses and not-for-profit organizations.
\nMore than 384,000 jobs statewide are
\nlinked to RNY. H&V is benefiting from more
\nthan 2 megawatts (MW) of RNY power, for
\nsignificant savings on its utility bills, state
\nofficials said.
\n(One MW is enough electricity to meet
\nthe needs of between 800 to 1,000 typical
\nhomes.)<\/p>\n

“This program helps us stay competitive
\nand allows us to grow our business and invest
\nin our New York facilities,” said Val Hollingsworth,
\npresident and CEO of Hollingsworth
\n& Vose.” Through this program, we are able
\nto use a sustainable and renewable energy
\nsource, which is important to H&V and the
\nlocal community. We are pleased to be in partnership with NYPA on this hydroelectric
\npower allocation program.”<\/p>\n

“The history of Hollingsworth & Vose is a
\ngreat American success story and New York
\nstate is proud to claim a piece of that success
\nthrough the lower cost power that we’re
\nproviding under ReCharge NY,” said John R.
\nKoelmel, NYPA chairman.<\/p>\n

“The Power Authority is happy to be working
\nwith Hollingsworth & Vose to help foster
\neconomic development in this wonderful
\ncommunity through low-cost electricity,”
\nsaid Gil C. Quiniones, president and chief
\nexecutive officer of the New York Power
\nAuthority. “The company’s long history is a
\ntestament to the forward-looking spirit of
\nits management and also makes it a great
\nfit for New York State’s creative programs to
\nbolster manufacturing and other businesses
\nand non-profits across the state.”<\/p>\n

New York State Energy Research and
\nDevelopment Authority (NYSERDA) is
\nproviding support to H&V for efficiency and
\nproductivity improvements at its Greenwich
\nand Easton facilities. Upgrades to the company’s
\npaper manufacturing technology and
\nprocess heating systems have resulted in
\nimproved operations and an overall reduction
\nin energy intensity.<\/p>\n

“NYSERDA’s partnership with Hollingsworth
\n& Vose aligns with Governor Cuomo’s
\ncall to make New York’s building stock more energy efficient, which will help businesses
\nreduce their energy consumption and provide
\nsavings that can then be reinvested,”
\nsaid John B. Rhodes, president and CEO,
\nNYSERDA. “This project highlights how public-
\nprivate partnerships are scaling up New
\nYork’s clean energy economy, creating jobs
\nand stimulating economic development.”<\/p>\n

Half of the 910 MW of power available
\nunder the RNY program is low-cost hydropower
\nfrom NYPA’s Niagara Power Project
\nand St. Lawrence-Franklin D. Roosevelt
\nPower Project, which are hydroelectric facilities
\nin Lewiston and Massena, respectively.<\/p>\n

The remaining 455 MW under the program
\nis power secured by NYPA from wholesale
\nmarket sources.<\/p>\n

“Hollingsworth & Vose is a valued manufacturing
\nbusiness in our community,” said
\nSara Idleman, supervisor, Town of Greenwich.
\n“We are thrilled that they have been
\nchosen by ReCharge NY to receive support for
\ncapital improvements that will enable them
\nto lower their energy costs. We are fortunate
\nin the Greenwich-Easton area to be home to
\nmany innovative and enterprising businesses
\nand manufacturers. Hollingsworth & Vose is a
\nmajor player in that dynamic. It is important
\nthat the state and local governments and
\nthe community support the businesses that
\nmake our towns and villages great places to
\nlive and work.”<\/p>\n
