How much of the discretionary funding will your jurisdiction get? This webinar will provide data and examples to help states and localities to maximize payoffs from federal economic revitalization and recovery funding streams. We’ll start with an overview of the investment returns of energy efficiency investments. Then we’ll examine different federal funding streams, focusing on what states and localities have to do to access the monies. Bringing it home, we’ll examine case studies from Kentucky, Missouri, and New York. The final 30 minutes is reserved for questions and answers. Presenters: Peter B.
