Apply for the “Clean Energy to Communities Program”

Are you seeking support for deploying geothermal energy? The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced Clean Energy to Communities (C2C), a program that connects local government, electric utilities, and community-based organizations with the immense capabilities of DOE’s national lab complex to help them turn their clean energy goals and ambitions into reality. 

C2C is designed to serve a wide range of communities—from small rural communities to sprawling urban areas; from communities just starting out on their transition to clean energy to those ready to implement. It provides tailored technical assistance through three distinct levels of support, ranging from a few months to a few years, as well as peer learning opportunities. Whether your clean energy goals and questions span renewable power, grid, mobility, or buildings, C2C can help.

The 4-8 selected partnerships will each be supported by funding ranging from $500,000 to $3 million. Community teams consisting of representatives from local government, community-based organizations, and electric utilities are encouraged to apply.
