This will help ensure that the funds comply with the Biden-Harris Administration's Justice 40 initiative to distribute at least 40% of the benefits to disadvantaged communities. Coordinating with tribal governments and communicating clearly, inclusively, and efficiently to ensure stakeholders and the public are informed and supported, and that they participate in federal funding opportunities. Where possible and internal resources allow, providing technical assistance to build community capacity and support grant recipients. Building cross-agency partnerships to leverage expertise and support historically underinvested work to further energy and climate goals and to provide other community benefits. Taking advantage of high-priority funding opportunities while ensuring quality work that puts every available dollar to its best use.

ODOE submitted an application to U.S. DOE in December 2022 and received funding in May 2023. ODOE will be working on establishing reporting metrics this summer in partnership with US DOE. OREGON DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY#13Grid Resilience ODOE is eligible for $50 million in funding over five years to help make Oregon's electric grid more resilient. ODOE's program will improve the all-hazards resilience of the electric grid against disruptive events; generate the greatest community benefit in reducing the likelihood and consequences. of disruptive events; advance US DOE's equity, environmental, and energy justice priorities, including the Justice40 initiative; and invest in Oregon's workforce. ODOE submitted an application for this funding to U.S. DOE on April 18, 2023 and expects to receive funding in the summer of 2023. OREGON DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY#14Workforce Development ODOE has heard from the energy industry and communities across the state that there is a need for energy auditors, contractors, and other energy professionals and tradespeople – especially in rural parts of the state. We are looking for opportunities to leverage existing workforce development programs in the state in support of these efforts. In or around the mid-2023, ODOE will be applying for a competitive grant under the IIJA to support energy auditor training. We also anticipate applying for funds under the IRA supported Contractor Training Grants to aid in HOMES & HEEHR implementation. Workforce development may also be included in other grants, like Solar for All, as a supportive activity. OREGON DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY#15Investing in Communities The IIJA included new funding for the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) Program, which provides grants to states, local governments, and Tribes to help them implement strategies to reduce fossil fuel emissions, reduce total energy use, and improve. energy efficiency. Some funds will go directly to tribes, larger cities and counties in the state and other funds. will come through ODOE to smaller cities and counties. ④ The application for tribes, states and local governments slated to receive a direct allocation is currently open and ODOE will apply for the state allocation of $1.9 million by July 31, 2023, but other entities may have different deadlines and amounts. OREGON DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY#16Greenhouse Gas Reduction The IRA includes $5 billion to plan and implement projects that reduce or avoid greenhouse gas emissions and other air pollution, under an opportunity known as the Climate Pollution Reduction Grants (CPRG). ODOE is working with DEQ and other state agencies to bring some of this funding to the state to support and build on Oregon's existing greenhouse gas reduction programs and policies. An additional $27 billion in funding will also be awarded through the IRA's Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF). Of this funding, $7 billion is set aside for a new competitive Solar for All program to support residential and community solar for low-income and disadvantaged communities. The application for the planning grant under the CPRG was submitted in April 2023. Applications for Solar for All are expected in Summer of 2023.#17Clean Hydrogen Economy Along with the Washington State Department of Commerce, ODOE is participating in the Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Association, a joint public-private partnership effort, in applying for funding from US DOE to host a hydrogen hub in the NW. The hub would leverage the PNW's clean electricity resources to create a clean hydrogen economy in the region. The PNWH2A submitted a concept paper to U.S. DOE in November 2022, and was one of 33 organizations (out of a total 79) to receive official "encouragement" from the US DOE and submitted a full application in April 2023. OREGON DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY#18Energy Efficiency & Electrification ODOE will bring $113 million to the state to help Oregonians make their homes and businesses more efficient, comfortable, and sustainable. The HOMES program will provide rebates for home energy retrofits and upgrades. The HEEHR program is targeted to Oregonians with low and moderate incomes and will provide rebates for electric and energy efficient appliances like electric heat pumps, electric stoves, heat pump water heaters, and supporting infrastructure. OREGON DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY ODOE will be submitting an application to U.S. DOE for this funding during the summer or fall of 2023 and expects to receive funds in late 2023 or early 2024. $ REBATES#19GOAL FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY FUNDING: ACCESSIBILITY AND ALIGNMENT Draft Strategic Intentions Easy and accessible for consumers Reduce energy burden Leverage existing programs Improve quality of life.

Following months of negotiations, the bill passed with bipartisan support and was signed into law by President Joe Biden on November 15, 2021. The law authorizes $1.2 trillion in infrastructure spending across more than 380 federal programs. Of that, approximately $650 billion reauthorizes existing funding, and another $550 billion adds new funding to support the nation's infrastructure needs. The White House has developed a guidebook for IIJA funding. President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) into law on August 16, 2022. The IRA funds investments related to health and medical programs as well as energy and climate programs using various tax measures and grants. The IRA provides approximately $369 billion in funding in support of energy and climate initiatives. The White House released a Guidebook for Clean Energy and Climate Programs in the Inflation Reduction Act. The guidebook contains a profile sheet on each funding opportunity under the IRA. You can view and download the IRA guide here. Not all of the energy and climate-related funding referenced above will flow through state energy offices like ODOE. There are numerous programs available to applicants from private businesses, institutions of higher education, community-based organizations, utilities, tribes, and local governments directly from federal agencies. Oregon Department of Energy staff are available to answer questions about this funding and encourages Oregonians to research and take advantage of opportunities that may support programs and projects in Oregon.
