ODEC Applying for Federal Renewable Energy Grants
ODEC has applied for $516.8 million in federal funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s New Empowering Rural America (New ERA) Program. The funding, if awarded, will be used to accelerate ODEC’s development of renewable and other clean energy resources. ODEC’s Letter of Interest requests funding to support 31 solar, wind, battery, and other clean energy projects that could provide nearly 800 Megawatts of power generation capacity and storage.
