Per U.S. DOE, a “City” is defined to include city-equivalent units of local government, such as a town, village, or other municipality.
A “County” is defined as a local government that is currently incorporated as a county, has a governance structure with an elected official and governing body, is capable of carrying out the activities outlined in the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA), and meets the required population thresholds outlined in EISA.
Consistent with U.S. Department of Energy requirements, units of local government that were eligible for direct EECBG formula funding awards are NOT eligible under this RFGA.
Units of local governments included in the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2021 Census of Governments Survey and not eligible for direct formula funding (i.e., listed in the U.S. DOE Direct Formula Grant Funding Allocations to Local Governments for the EECBG Program) are eligible to apply for funding under this RFGA.
Categories of Eligible Locations for Activities to Take Place Description of Funding Opportunity Overview of the Arizona Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant Program The purpose of the Arizona EECBG Program is to assist eligible local governments in creating and implementing strategies to: ● Reduce fossil fuel emissions in a manner that is environmentally sustainable and, to the maximum extent practicable, maximizes benefits for local and regional communities; ● Reduce the total energy use of the eligible entities; ● Improve energy efficiency in the transportation sector, the building sector, and other appropriate sectors; and ● Build a clean and equitable energy economy that prioritizes disadvantaged communities and promotes equity and inclusion in workforce opportunities and deployment activities, consistent with the Justice40 Initiative.
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) of 2021—also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL)—section 40552 provided funding for the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) program. The CFDA number assigned to the EECBG Program is 81. 128.
The Arizona Governor’s Office of Resiliency (OOR), which is the State Energy Office (SEO), received a formula allocation under the EECBG from the U.S. Department of Energy. Consistent with USDOE requirements, at least sixty percent (60%) of the State’s formula allocation must be distributed to local governments that are ineligible for direct EECBG formula funding.
The OOR is making funding available for specific categories of EECBG-allowable projects, as described in this Request for Grant Applications (RFGA).
Applicants should be aware that the funding made available through the EECBG program is subject to various federal requirements, including but not limited to, the Build America Buy America Act, the Davis-Bacon and Related Acts labor standards, and the National Environmental Protection Act: ● Build America, Buy America (BABA) Act: The BABA Requirement applies to articles, materials, and supplies that are consumed in, incorporated into, or permanently affixed to an EECBG-funded infrastructure project.
Specifically, all iron and steel, all manufactured products, and all construction materials used in the project must be produced in the ● Davis-Bacon and Related Acts (DBRA): All projects funded, in whole or in part, by the BIL that involve construction, alteration, or repair are required to follow Davis-Bacon Act labor standards and comply with reporting requirements.
Applications selected for funding for construction, alteration, or repair projects are required to pay laborers and mechanics the published prevailing wage, set by the U.S. Department of Labor through wage determinations, on a weekly basis.
Additionally, awarded subrecipients will be required to maintain accurate records of hours worked and wages paid, and submit certified payroll on a weekly basis in addition to other reporting to help ensure ● National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA): Compliance with the National Environmental Protection Act is required to receive EECBG Program funds.
For those projects requiring NEPA review, the OOR will provide additional guidance for grantees after the award process. Applicants should await further direction before obtaining official NEPA review and approval. Proposed local government activities to be supported by EECBG funding shall outline, in their proposal, the means by which subgrantees shall meet Justice40 requirements.
Meeting Justice40 requirements shall be included in reporting submitted by subgrantees. As the prime award for this funding was granted prior to October 1, 2024, these funds are not subject to the updated OMB Guidance for Federal Financial Assistance.
These funds should be managed under Part 200 – Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (2 CFR Part 200); Office of Management and Budget (OMB) at https://www. ecfr. gov/current/title-2/subtitle-A/chapter-II/part-200?
toc… . Proposals may span a wide variety of technology areas including electric transportation, renewable energy, and building efficiency and/or electrification. Applicants shall propose programs and projects that align with one or more of the following eligible activity areas and that will occur within the jurisdiction of the applying eligible entity: 1.
Development and implementation of an energy efficiency and conservation strategy. The activity must be for the development, in support of the development, or in support of the implementation of a general strategy that outlines goals for energy efficiency or 2.
Retaining technical consultant services to assist the eligible entity in the development and implementation of an energy efficiency and conservation strategy, including developing methods to measure progress in achieving the goals identified in the strategy, and developing and publishing annual reports, such as dissemination of energy plans and 3.
Conducting residential and commercial building energy audits and/or energy usage assessments, within the jurisdiction of the eligible entity. 4. The performance of energy efficiency retrofits.
The retrofit may be of equipment (e.g., an HVAC system and associated controls, appliances, or lighting) or a building. The retrofit must result in energy savings (e.g., kwh/BTUs) or improved energy efficiency; must not be for new construction or non-replacement equipment; and must occur within the jurisdiction 5.
Development and implementation of energy efficiency and conservation programs for buildings and facilities within the jurisdiction of the eligible entity. 6. Development and implementation of programs to conserve energy used in transportation.
7. Development and implementation of building codes and inspection services to promote building energy efficiency. The activity must be for the development, adoption and/or implementation of building codes (including supporting the adoption and implementation of model building energy codes or stretch codes), inspection services or training/workshops to promote building energy efficiency.
8. Purchase and implementation of technologies to reduce, capture, and, to the maximum extent practicable, use methane and other greenhouse gasses generated by landfills or 9. Replacement of traffic signals, street lighting, or street signs with energy efficient lighting technologies.
Generally, only the cost of the replacement lamp is eligible unless replacement/upgrade of supporting structure (e.g., posts) is necessary to support the replacement of the lamps. Regular maintenance is an ineligible cost. 10.
Development, implementation, and installation on or in any government building of the eligible entity of onsite renewable energy technology that generates electricity from renewable resources, including solar energy, wind energy, fuel cells; and biomass. Is this a cooperative agreement? Are these pre-allocated/non-competitive funds?
Is having a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) from SAM. gov required? Is a cost-share required?
Is fiscal sponsorship accepted? Cost match is not required but it is encouraged. https://files-prod-v2-ecivis-com.
