Estimated Fuel Savings from Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative Projects

Fuel savings data tracks the total estimated non-electric energy savings by fuel type from projects funded by the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI). The dataset is managed by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) and was last updated in April 2026. It quantifies the impact of RGGI-funded programs aimed at reducing fossil fuel consumption.

Use Cases

• Analyze total estimated savings by fuel type (e.g., natural gas, heating oil) across RGGI-funded projects.
• Compare energy savings between installed versus anticipated project statuses.
• Correlate funding allocation from emissions allowance sales with resulting fuel savings metrics.
• Track progress of state-level energy efficiency programs funded by RGGI mechanisms.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from the authoritative New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA).
• Includes both installed and anticipated project data, providing forward-looking estimates.

Limitations

• Specific row count, column details, and sample data are unavailable for assessing volume and granularity.
• Geographic coverage is limited to projects funded by New York State's RGGI allocation.
