The Department of Energy (DOE) awarded a $1,800,000 Cooperative Agreement through the Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Information Dissemination, Outreach, Training and Technical Analysis/Assistance program (CFDA 81.117) to the Virginia Department of Housing & Community Development. The grant will fund two key initiatives: 1) targeted training and support for commercial and residential energy code compliance, including ASHRAE standards as an alternative pathway, and 2) increasing the number of trained and certified energy and building code officials in Virginia. The funding aims to improve building energy efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and support the transition to more sustainable infrastructure across the state. The Commonwealth of Virginia Department, as the parent organization of the primary awardee, may also provide related services or collaborate with sub-awardees as part of this effort.
