Description: The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) provided nearly $3 billion for the Department of Energy's new Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) program. The program provides grants to eligible cities and counties for a wide variety of projects to reduce energy use and fossil fuel emissions, and for improvements in energy efficiency.

DOE has already awarded more than 1,700 EECBG grants-ranging from energy efficiency and conservation plans to energy audits and conservation-oriented transportation programs-and many more are in the pipeline.

Mark Johnson, the EECBG lead for the Department of Energy will present an inside look at the Program in this timely online seminar. He'll walk through the details of the program, outlining how a community applies for funding, what type of projects are eligible, reporting requirements, and other critical information.

As firms look for new market opportunities, and Congress continues to place new emphasis on funding programs to promote energy efficiency and sustainability, this session will help you position your firm to take advantage of this expanding sector.
