The Electric Department provides the residents of Rockville Centre with low-cost electric power. Our utility is able to meet peak load demands without resorting to brownouts due to the expanded capacity of the generating plant and the additional hydropower available from New York State due to the expanded capacity of the interconnecting substation. Our electric utility continually plans for future demands. Negotiations with Con Edison ensures a reliable path for the delivery of inexpensive power, and a similar agreement with LIPA expands our potential for importing even more electricity. Additional supplies are currently being solicited through the Village's participation in the New York Municipal Power Agency, a joint action agency formed for the purpose of purchasing low cost power. The average Rockville Centre Electric Bill is 50% less than consumers whose power is supplied by LIPA. The Electric department was successful in 1996 in gaining approval from New York State for the safe operations of it newest engine and for the levels of emission from the the plant on Maple Avenue. To date, the utility has met all of the requirements of the federal clean air act that is monitored by the State's Department of Environmental Conservation. The Utility also joined with other municipal electric systems in New York in a joint action agency that is seeking additional sources of low-cost hydro-power to supplement the allocation the Village currently receives from the New York State Power Authority.
