Key Capture Energy was selected by Orange & Rockland (O&R) to plan, design, install and operate O&R’s new battery storage project in Pomona, New York. The battery storage project is part of O&R’s innovative Pomona Non-Wires Alternative (NWA) Project, a program designed to help O&R maintain reliable service for customers and reduce emissions from power plants.

Last week, the Planning Board for the Town of Ramapo in Rockland County, New York, voted 6-0 to grant our KCE NY 3 Pomona project the site plan approval and special use permit, clearing the pathway to commence construction. We appreciate the careful consideration by the numerous local and state agencies and stakeholders which reviewed our permit application including the Town of Ramapo Planning Board, Town of Ramapo Zoning Board of Appeals, Town of Ramapo Community Design Review Board, Town of Ramapo Fire Inspector, Town of Ramapo Department of Public Works, Rockland County Health Department, Rockland County Department of Planning, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, Palisades Interstate Park Commission, and others.

We are very excited to be at the forefront of New York State’s clean energy initiatives and to work with O&R to provide cleaner, more affordable power for its customers.
