Summary: EmPower+ Project Contract Requirement- Update
Questions: Please contact Contractor Support at 1-800-284-9069.

Effective August 1, 2024, Participating Contractors must generate a project contract for all EmPower+ projects, even if the Program is paying for 100% of the project cost. Contracts must be drafted in accordance with the requirements set forth in the Residential Contractor Participation Agreement in Section 2.4 of the Program Manual. For new work scope submissions, where EmPower+ funding is covering the entire cost of the project, contracts with the customer must contain the following statement: “The contract price is being paid by NYSERDA through the EmPower+ program, for and on behalf of the customer.” A copy of the contract must be included as part of the final project submission paperwork. Section 8.1 of the Program Manual has been added to provide an overview of the project paperwork required for each project type.

If there are any questions, please contact Contractor Support at 1-800-284-9069.
