ARC Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency RFP
This Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) grants program will provide support for the implementation of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy training and certification programs for adults. These programs can be delivered by postsecondary institutions, such as vocational and technical schools, community colleges, and 4-year colleges and universities, as well as by trade associations, non-profit organizations, and government entities. These targeted training programs will be designed to help develop trained employees for supply chain jobs in the renewable energy and energy efficiency fields, as well as provide certified installers of renewable energy (wind, solar, geothermal, fuel cells, or biofuels) and energy efficiency technologies in the marketplace. The grants program will also assist in implementing energy efficiency education curricula, such as USGBC LEED, ASHRAE, IECC and other energy efficiency programming1.
