Last spring, NYSERDA launched the Agriculture Energy Audit Program. The Program offers farms and on-farm producers no-cost energy audits.  No up-front costs are required form the farmer as NYSERDA pays the consultant directly.  Three levels of audits are offered.  The level II audit adheres to ANSI/ASABE S612 standards and can be submitted with EQIP applications or to other third parties for funding consideration.
Audits are available on a first-come, first-served basis. The program runs through the end of the 2017 or until funds are expended.  For general information or to request flyers for your office call 800-732-1399 or email aeep@nyserda.ny.gov.  To discuss the program further or contact the Program Manager, Lisa Coven, at extension 839 or lisac@ensave.com.
Applications available at https://nyserda.seamlessdocs.com/f/AgAudit
