The New York Power Authority (NYPA), working in partnership with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, announced the completion of a $4 million energy efficiency project that will save the airport about $275,000 in annual energy costs.

The project included comprehensive energy-saving measures, undertaken at two facilities at the airport. The work began last year and included lighting upgrades, the installation of steam traps and insulation, and the re-roofing of 104,000 square-feet of a two-story office building and maintenance garage.
