Community Energy Advisors

Mid-Hudson Regional Clean Energy Hub

New York State is embarking on a transition to an inclusive clean energy powered economy. All residents, businesses and communities across the State will have access to new opportunities to benefit from this transition including clean energy careers, home improvements, even rebates for businesses and personal transportation. But there’s a lot of information out there, and people may not know where to start.

To help New Yorkers access and navigate these opportunities, NYSERDA created the Regional Clean Energy Hubs. Clean Energy Hubs connect people to the clean energy economy.

The Mid-Hudson Regional Clean Energy Hub is your team of trusted, knowledgeable, community-based organizations from across the region and is a collaboration of Cornell Cooperative Extension of Dutchess, Sullivan, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, and Ulster, in partnership with Sustainable Westchester, New Yorkers for Clean Power, and a growing network of local partners.
