At the national level, the U. S. Department of Energy (DOE) manages State Energy Program (SEP) Special Projects through the State Energy Program and awards project funds to state energy offices through an annual competitive solicitation process. The SEP Special Projects solicitation and national competitive process for federal funding started in 1996. From 1996 through 2005, Nebraska was awarded 21 grants which total $2,321,448. Of those grants, 19 were awarded under DOE’s “Buildings” category and two were awarded under DOE’s “Electric Power and Renewable Energy” category. |
