Are there set income levels for use of funds with the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) Program?
The Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) Program is authorized in Title V, Subtitle E of the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA). Pursuant to Section 544 of EISA (42 USC 17154) a grantee may use EECBG funds to carry out thirteen types of activities listed in 42 USC 17154(1) through (13). The EECBG statute does not impose any income limitation for any of the eligible activities. As long as the activity is within one of the categories listed in 42 USC 17154(1) through (13) then the activity is considered eligible. The Weatherization and Intergovernmental Program (WIP) which oversees the EECBG program has developed a Solution Center for technical assistance resources. The goal of the Solution Center is to help eligible grantees and sub-grantees develop and implement successful energy efficiency and conservation projects and programs that meet the conditions and guidelines of the EECBG program. The Solution Center can be found at the following link: http://www1.ee
