What's New

ARRA Technical Assistance

EECBG grantees may now apply for technical assistance through DOE's Technical Assistance Project for State and Local Officials. Staff at DOE and its national laboratories can provide assistance to states, counties, municipalities, U.S. territories and tribal governments with technical aspects of ARRA projects, strategies, policies, and programs. Technical assistance includes help developing or reviewing an energy strategy (e.g., how to develop the metrics that are required for reporting on the success of the strategy), or help with a specific technology or detailed program plan. Information on how to apply for this assistance can be found here.

Revolving Loans Funding

One of the activities encouraged under the EECBG Program is the creation of long-term funding mechanisms to extend the impact of ARRA funds, such as revolving loan funds. A new guidance document on revolving loan funds is available here (PDF 517KB).Download Adobe Reader.
