The Department of Energy (DOE) is establishing Formula Grant Application Instructions and management information for the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) Program, including (1) Administrative and Legal Requirements Document (ALRD), (2) IIJA Formula Allocations to States, Local Governments and Indian Tribes, (3) IIJA Application Checklist, (4) IIJA EECBG Program Pre-Award Information Sheet, and (5), IIJA Energy Efficiency and Conservation Strategy Templates.
The EECBG Program assists eligible states, units of local government, and Indian Tribes, as described below (herein called “entities” or “eligible entities”) in implementing strategies to:
Reduce fossil fuel emissions in a manner that is environmentally sustainable and, to the maximum extent practicable, maximizes benefits for local and regional communities
Reduce the total energy use of the eligible entities
Improve energy efficiency in the transportation sector, the building sector, and other appropriate sectors
Build a clean and equitable energy economy that prioritizes disadvantaged communities and promotes equity and inclusion in workforce opportunities and deployment activities, consistent with the Justice40 Initiative
