The Department of Energy will soon begin accepting applications from states seeking part of $250 million in funding allocated for energy efficiency upgrades, reports The Hill.
The funding, which will support energy efficient upgrades for commercial and residential buildings, is part of a recent effort to lower energy use and costs.
The decreasing costs associated with developing renewable energy infrastructure are unlocking a wealth of possibilities. Wind and solar power have not only become economically viable alternatives but are now poised to offer significant cost advantages over conventional fossil fuels like natural gas. This shift towards renewable dominance is not merely a green vision; it’s a reality that is translating into tangible benefits for both residents and businesses across Texas.
