ABOUT:
The New York Power Authority (NYPA) is America’s largest state power organization, with a mission to lead the transition to a carbon-free, economically vibrant New York State through customer partnerships with other state and local entities, innovative energy solutions, and responsible supply of affordable, clean, and reliable electricity.
As part of our organization, NYPA operates, maintains, and promotes the NYS Canal system through its subsidiary, NYS Canal Corporation. New York’s Canal system includes four historic canals: the Erie, Champlain, Oswego, and Cayuga-Seneca. Spanning 524 miles, the canal waterways link the Hudson River with the Great Lakes, the Finger Lakes, and Lake Champlain. Following much of the original towpaths, the Canal system also includes the 365-mile Canalway Trail, which runs from Albany to Buffalo and from Albany to Whitehall and is all part of the 750-mile Empire State Trail—the nation’s longest multi-use recreational trail network.
