Plan for $100M climate innovation at Brooklyn Army Terminal moves forward
EDC issues request for proposals
SUNSET PARK — The New York City Economic Development Corporation on Monday announced the release of an up-to-$100 million request for proposals for an operator to develop a world-class Climate Innovation Hub at the Brooklyn Army Terminal in Sunset Park.
This cutting-edge hub is expected to grow New York City’s climate technology ecosystem and help climate technologists, entrepreneurs and others working to develop, pilot, and deploy new solutions to combat the effects of climate change.
The Climate Innovation Hub will be part of the recently formed Harbor Climate Collaborative — a partnership that will link climate tech businesses and programs at BAT with the rest of the Sunset Park district, the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation and the Trust for Governors Island.
