Of the planned project activities for Washington State, Recovery Act SEP funding will be used to implement two major programs: the Community-Wide Urban Residential and Commercial Energy Efficiency Program and the Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Loans and Grants Program Fund. The Community-Wide Urban Residential and Commercial Energy Efficiency Program will enhance financial and technical assistance programs by directing municipal, state, and federal funds, as well as electric and gas utility funding, toward greater comprehensive use of diverse energy efficiency measures to impact multiple sectors within the state. The Washington State Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Loans and Grants Program Fund will establish innovative and sustainable industries for energy-efficient and renewable energy technology.
