NYSP2I’s R&D Program focuses on applied research — research that will lead to near-term solutions to keep New York State companies competitive in the marketplace while reducing their environmental footprint.
R&D projects are conducted at NYSP2I's four partner universities: Rochester Institute of Technology, Clarkson University, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and the State University at Buffalo. Researchers at these universities are eligible to apply and receive R&D grant funding each year to promote the development and ultimate implementation of sound, innovative technologies or processes that can reduce environmental impacts and overall costs in NYS. To date, NYSP2I has funded 35 R&D projects, totaling nearly $2 million.
