Schumer Annouces $697,000 for energy projects in Schenectady County

Senator Charles E. Schumer recently announced that General Electric’s Global R&D Center in Niskayuna has been selected to receive $697,769 in federal funding for projects that will help address difficulties in the energy market. The funding will specifically focus on wind turbine manufacturing process monitoring.

“This project is a win-win for upstate New York,” said Senator Schumer. “Not only will this funding help keep New York a leader in the clean energy movement, but it will create much-needed jobs across the state. I will continue to fight for funding to support research and development of renewable energy sources to keep New York facilities at the forefront of clean energy technology.”
