The Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant Program webpage is now available on IEDA’s website. Along with the webpage launch, there is now a policies and procedures guide available with further details. IEDA is working to make a grant application available in IowaGrants in January 2024.

The Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) Program is a federally funded program designed to assist states, local governments, and tribes in implementing strategies to reduce energy use and carbon emissions and to improve energy efficiency.
 
The purpose of the EECBG program is to support:

• Building energy assessments or audits and upgrades
• Upgrading wastewater or water supply facilities for energy efficiency
• Replacing traffic signals and streetlights to improve energy efficiency
• Demonstrating innovative renewable energy project deployment

Application Deadline:
