As part of the Biden-Harris Administration’s Investing in America agenda, the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED) today opened applications for up to $400 million to spur innovative, community-focused, clean energy solutions for rural and remote communities across the United States.
Funded by GDO and the Washington State Department of Commerce, the 18-month study will explore how utilities in Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington can plan infrastructure investments to address complex dynamics facing the region such as high load growth, electrification, planning for extreme weather events, and meeting decarbonization targets. The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) will perform and administer PREPP.
