9/21/2022

0 Comments

 
This workshop is hosted by the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED). OCED Principal Deputy Director Kelly Cummins recording this video which does a great job of explaining the role of the office and these workshops.
 
The DOE is interested in hearing about how demonstration projects will improve the resilience, safety, reliability, availability, and environmental performance of rural and remote energy systems throughout the country. These workshops are an opportunity to hear from people like you about energy challenges you are facing and the types of projects that can improve your energy systems.
 
These workshops will:
  • Provide a detailed overview of the ERA program to interested stakeholders
  • Collect feedback from stakeholders on drivers, challenges, and potential impacts of demonstrations
  • Offer a forum for stakeholder networking in preparation for the funding opportunity announcement
Before sharing this opportunity with your rural and remote stakeholders, please watch the video linked in the first paragraph. It really does a great job of explaining the new DOE Office and the role of the workshops. If your coalition represents rural communities and is interested in attending, we also encourage you to register and share your feedback. Let me know if you have any questions.
 
The 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law allocated $1 billion to improve energy systems in rural or remote areas of the country with fewer than 10,000 people, and OCED is seeking input as it shapes this new ERA program in preparation for a future funding opportunity announcement.
There are three upcoming ERA workshops (list below) and your stakeholders may interested in joining one at the locations below.
