OED: Energy Efficiency Fund The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) provided $250M for states to establish revolving loan fund (RLF) capitalization grant programs for the purposes of energy efficiency. Indiana received $9. 9 million and established the Indiana Energy Efficiency Fund (IEEF) to provide loans and grants for commercial and residential energy audits, upgrades, and retrofits.
This funding aims to increase energy efficiency, physical comfort, and air quality of existing building infrastructure. Under this U.S. Department of Energy Formula Program, OED will administer Indiana's allocation of approximately 65% for loans and 25% for grants. The IEEF will partner with lenders to finance energy efficiency improvements throughout the state.
Through a co-lending approach, private capital will be leveraged with public capital to enhance the amount of funding available at lower interest rates. OED is taking a phased approach to opening the program statewide. OED is currently accepting applications for commercial building projects.
Commercial projects include businesses, non-profit, and public buildings. Submitted applications and the associated documentation will be reviewed by OED staff to assess project eligibility based on program guidelines. Once an eligibility determination is made, the applicant will work with participating lending partners to complete and process additional loan application materials.
