Joint NOFA Initiatives to Target Underserved Priority Populations
Energy Efficiency Improvement Grants (DCEO):
DCEO is authorized by 20 ILCS 1105/3 (Energy Conservation and Coal Development
Act) to administer for the State any energy programs and activities under federal law,
regulations or guidelines. These funding sources include the Illinois Energy Efficiency
Trust Fund (20 ILCS 687/6) and a portion of the Energy Efficient Portfolio (EEP) (220
ILCS 5/12-103). The statute provides funding for the EEP and sets certain statutory
requirements to meet incremental annual energy savings goals, procure a minimum
percent of the portfolio from local government, schools, and community colleges, and
target low income households proportionate to their share of annual utility revenues.
