[Iscn-members] FW: 2024 Renewable Development Fund Now Open

[WORTMAN David * DAS]

All,

Please see the announcement below about the Renewable Development Fund grant program. DAS was awarded a $500,000 grant a few years ago to install a solar array. It’s a great program and if you have any solar projects you are considering where you are seeking funding sources.

Happy to share our DAS experience with the program with anyone.

Dear community partners,



Since 1999, PGE customers choosing clean energy through our Green Future℠ renewable power programs have helped fund clean energy projects in the community through the Renewable Development Fund. To date, 92 organizations have received support through the Renewable Development Fund. These projects are making a difference to help achieve Oregon’s clean energy and carbon reduction goals. Learn about our 2023 Renewable Development Fund winners here<https://assets.ctfassets.net/416ywc1laqmd/3SmLZJEpCVIpjGaP39aOCM/e76f9d97bed756b905ef8e1905c080a0/2023_RDF_Grant_Recipients.pdf>.



For the second time, the Renewable Development Fund cycle will include funding for projects that incorporate energy storage. Solar projects hosted by government organizations, for-profit entities, and nonprofits operating multifamily housing developments or community centers are required to include energy storage. All other projects are encouraged to include energy storage. Previous RDF awardees, who have completed their final reports, are eligible to apply for funding to add batteries to their existing renewable energy project. Combining battery storage with solar power offers more consistent energy and makes projects more resilient to potential outages, regardless of the weather or time of day.



2024 PGE Renewable Development Fund applications will be open Monday, July 1- Saturday, August 31. Application guidelines, answers to frequently asked questions and guidelines are available on the RDF webpage<http://www.portlandgeneral.com/rdf>. If you’d like to attend an RDF Applicant Webinar on Thursday, July 18 at 12pm, please RSVP to RenewableDevFund at pgn.com<mailto:RenewableDevFund at pgn.com>.



If you have any questions, please email RenewableDevFund at pgn.com<mailto:RenewableDevFund at pgn.com>.



*Note: if you’d like to no longer receive these emails, please respond back with “unsubscribe” to be removed.*



Thank you,
