U.S. Department of Energy Rural or Remote Energy Improvement Workshops Offered |
|
U.S. Department of Energy Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED) is pleased to invite you to participate in an upcoming Energy Improvements in Rural or Remote Areas (ERA) workshop. 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.
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.

Request for Expansion of HALEU Availability Program |
|
The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) earmarked $700 million for high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU) supply. On September 2, the White House sent a supplemental appropriation request to Congress that would provide more than double the IRA funds if passed—$1.5 billion—for the Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy to build a reliable supply of both low-enriched uranium for existing U.S. nuclear power plants and HALEU for the advanced reactors that will be built within the decade. |

AWB - Energy Solutions Summit |
|
Low-cost energy has been one of Washington’s primary competitive advantages for decades thanks to an abundance of renewable hydroelectricity. But with our region’s dams under attack and with new efforts to restrict or eliminate the use of natural gas, the region’s energy future is unclear. Join us at the Energy Solutions Summit to discuss what this means for employers and the economy. |
