OBJECTIVES: Investments focus on three strategies: Promoting policy reform -- the sponsor supports organizations seeking to promote energy-efficiency resource standards, as well as standards for appliance and equipment efficiency and renewable energy. In addition, the sponsor funds work on policies that encourage utility investment in energy-efficiency programs and transmission policy reform for the Midwest and at a federal level. The aim is the implementation of programs and policies that support energy efficiency and renewable energy as contributors to meeting demand. Bringing energy-efficiency retrofits to scale -- the sponsor seeks to demonstrate through grants and program-related investments that energy-efficiency retrofits can be brought to scale by addressing barriers such as financing, performance measurement and disclosure, marketing and behavior. Supporting next-generation approaches -- the sponsor helps those working to push the bounds of what is considered possible and practical for efficiency improvements in the built environment, and support practices that drive innovation in the fields of energy efficiency and renewable energy.
ELIGIBILITY Eligible applicants include U.S.-based 501(c)(3) organizations and their Canadian equivalents, as well as government entities. The sponsor will not support projects outside of North America.
