New York City Energy Efficiency Corporation
City-funded organization
The New York City Energy Efficiency Corporation (NYCEEC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit lender that makes loans and other financing available for energy efficiency, solar, storage, and electric-vehicle-charging projects, originally in NYC and now across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, per its own site. Its most recent IRS Form 990 (fiscal year ending June 2025, EIN 27-3731338) reports revenue of about $5.2 million and expenses of about $5.9 million, per ProPublica's Nonprofit Explorer. On Checkbook NYC, NYCEEC shows eight registered city contracts totaling about $60 million since 2010 (about $55 million paid to date), with the Department of Citywide Administrative Services (for administering a loan fund) and the Department of Environmental Protection (for contracts titled around "energy efficiency retrofit products/services/education"); Checkbook tags all eight as awarded without a fresh competitive bid (variously renewal, sole source, negotiated, or assignment), putting 100% of NYCEEC's total contract value, about $60 million, in that category.
