(Topic Area 1); (2) Establish baseline energy use and efficiency options (Topic Area 2); (3) Develop energy organizations (Topic Area 3); (4) Conduct climate resiliency planning (Topic Area 4); (5) Establish policy, regulations, and codes to reduce energy use or promote energy development (Topic Area 5); and, (6) Obtain skills and training related to energy use and development (Topic Area 6).

It is expected that proposed activities will result in specific outcomes (measureable results or end-products) that will lead to the development and deployment of strategic energy solutions, and/or build knowledge or skills necessary to implement successful energy solutions.

Under this Funding Opportunity Announcement, required cost share must be at least 10% of the total allowable costs of the project (i.e., the sum of the Government share, and the Recipient share of allowable costs equals the total allowable cost of the project).

All cost share must come from non-Federal sources, unless otherwise allowed by law.

Cost share may include cash or in-kind contributions (e.g., contribution of time, unrecovered indirect costs, unrecovered facilities and administrative costs, rental value of buildings or equipment, and the value of a service, other resource, or third party in-kind contribution) made during the period of performance of the grant.

DOE expects to make approximately $2 million to $3 million of Federal funding available for new awards under this FOA, subject to the availability of appropriated funds.

DOE anticipates making approximately eight (8) to twenty (20) grant awards with DOE funding per individual award varying between ranging from $50,000 to $250,000, and to not exceed $250,00 0. DOE will not consider applications proposing DOE funds of less than $50,00 0. DOE anticipates making awards with period of performances of approximately one (1) to two (2) years, but no longer than three (3) years.

DOE may issue awards in one, multiple, or none of the topic areas.
