Sustainable Energy Resources for Consumers Awards

U.S. Department of Energy

The U.S. Department of Energy has announced that about $90 million in Recovery Act funds is being given as Sustainable Energy Resources for Consumers Awards to 103 high-performing local weatherization providers in 27 states to complement and expand their existing weatherization programs.

84 CAAs have been chosen by DOE to be among those organizations that will receive SERC Awards.

Each of the selected organizations has already met their milestone of weatherizing 30 percent of their total production goal and spending 30 percent of their Recovery Act funds.  These awards will allow these successful grantees for the first time to install renewable energy systems and cutting-edge energy efficiency technologies in homes to help families save even more on their energy bills.  This includes installing technologies such as solar heating systems, solar photovoltaic panels and shingles, small-scale wind turbines, new insulation technologies, cool roofs, high-efficiency appliances, tankless hot water systems, high-efficiency combination boilers for hot water and heat, in-home energy monitors, and ductless heat pump systems.
