State Portfolio

State, local, and regional organizations in the public and private sectors can work together to help local industrial companies realize energy and cost-saving benefits by utilizing Save Energy Now (SEN) resources. These partnerships help put energy-saving tools into the hands of plant managers and engineers, reinforcing energy efficiency as a profitable business practice.

The Industrial Technologies Program (ITP) provides SEN resources such as technical assistance, assessments, industry-specific guidebooks, and energy efficiency certifications and training to state, utility, and industrial partners. The ITP State Portfolio contains active awards for cost-sharing these activities.

Active Awards

ITP is providing funding for the development and delivery of industrial energy efficiency programs implemented on a local, state or regional level. These projects are aimed at delivering industrial energy efficiency programs modeled after SEN, and contribute to a 2.5 percent reduction in industrial energy intensity. Awards are anticipated to be in place in Summer 2009 for the following states: 

  • California - California Industrial Program
  • Colorado - Colorado Industrial Challenge Program
  • Georgia - Southeast Industrial Energy Alliance
  • Illinois - Midwest States Save Energy Now Partnership Program
  • Indiana - Save Energy Now Indiana
  • Massachusetts - Massachusetts Save Energy Now: State, Regional and Local Delivery
  • Michigan - State of Michigan Regional Delivery of the DOE Save Energy Now Program to Meet the Goals of EPACT (2005) and EISA (2007)
  • New York - Reducing Energy Intensity in the State of New York
  • South Carolina - Save Energy Now - South Carolina
  • Texas - Supporting Texas Manufacturing to "Save Energy Now"
  • Washington - Northwest Save Energy Now Industrial Efficiency Initiative
  • West Virginia - Development of a Regional Assessment/Implementation SEN Delivery System Partnership

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009

On June 25, 2009 the U.S. Secretary of Energy Steven Chu announced more than $154 million in Recovery Act funding to support energy efficiency and renewable energy projects in California, Missouri, New Hampshire and North Carolina. Under DOE's State Energy Program (SEP), states have proposed statewide plans that prioritize energy savings, create or retain jobs, increase the use of renewable energy, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This initiative is part of the Obama Administration's national strategy to support job growth, while making a historic down payment on clean energy and conservation.
