Energy Dept. has mega recovery bucks to award
$38.7 billion authorized and $4.3 billion awarded to date. There should still be plenty of opportunity for Recovery Act funding from the U.S. Dept. of Energy. And there’s a toll-free number, and a website, for the DOE’s Recovery Act Clearinghouse, for those with questions. Call 1-888-363-7289.
Most recently Secretary Chu announced $50 million to accelerate deployment of geothermal heat pumps. Additional funding opportunities are listed here – and updated reasonably frequently.
Energy efficiency and alternative energy options are an important part of the Administration’s plans. Funding is available for excellent, actionable proposals. Check it out. –nks
