The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE's) Renew America’s Schools Program and Loan Programs Office (LPO) collaborated to provide this webinar about loan strategies applicable to school energy improvements. DOE recommends this video to state and local leaders, school champions and partners, and organizations interested in learning more about LPO.

Details:
LPO can now augment state-administered clean energy programs through the State Energy Financing Institution (SEFI)-Supported category of the Title 17 Clean Energy Financing Program, providing additional financial support to projects that align federal energy priorities with those of U.S. states. The authority expands eligibility for LPO financing to include certain projects that incorporate commercial technologies, or aggregate technology-diverse projects, and that receive meaningful financial support or credit enhancements from a SEFI. SEFI-Supported projects do not have a technology innovation requirement; through the Clean Energy Financing Program, LPO can provide loan guarantees for clean energy deployment projects, including renewables and efficiency, as well as clean transportation.
