## What does this funding get me? Grants to help nonprofits do energy efficiency work. Two programs had funding cycles in the Southeast that closed in April and May of 2025.
Funding deadlines for fall 2025 to be announced. * Good Use (subgrants up to $120,000 from the Southface Institute) * GoodUse provided matching grants for nonprofits ranging from food banks to arts organizations. * Although the most recent cycle ended in April, Southface Institute is working to keep expanding RAN opportunities, so please check the website in 2026 to stay updated.
* BUILT Nonprofits through TechWerx (Congratulations to Marbles Kids Museum in Raleigh, one of 22 recipients in 2024) * The Joint Assessment of Resilience in Vulnerable Infrastructure Systems (JARVIS) Opportunity provided funding to utilities to deploy advanced technologies and incorporate modeling to identify and mitigate grid vulnerabilities, enabling greater integration across diverse energy portfolios.
Both programs were open to nonprofit organizations who own and operate their own buildings, but may differ in additional requirements. Please check out their websites for future opportunities. ## How can I access the money?
## What other incentives could I use to help me accomplish my goals? * Nonprofits can transfer the 179D energy efficiency tax deduction to their contractor in exchange for a lower price. * Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for additional incentives that may be offered by your state, local government, or utility, as well as important federal, state, and local policies.
For questions regarding DSIRE, contact Justin Lindemann (NC Clean Energy Technology Center) at jplindem@ncsu. edu. * Check out our (non-exhaustive) list of non-federal funding from other sources that may fit your energy and cost-saving goals.
