Residential Market Engagement Platform

NYSERDA is excited to implement a new platform called the Residential Market Engagement Platform (RMES). This online platform will replace the EmPCalc and the contractor portal (Uplight) used by the EmPower New York, Assisted Home Performance with ENERGY STAR, and Residential Energy Assessment Programs. RMES will be launching in March of 2023. Starting now, monthly updates will be posted in Program Announcements and will occur in the Monthly Stakeholder Webinars.

Contractors, CLEAResult, and NYSERDA will use the RMES platform for many tasks, including contractor assignments, project acceptance, work scope submissions, screenings, approvals, reviews, final project submissions, funding allocations, invoice reporting, and real-time program and measure updates.
