The Caddo Tribe of Oklahoma, doing business as the Caddo Nation of Oklahoma, received a $130,944 Project Grant from the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs under the Tribal Energy Development Capacity (TEDC) Grants program (CFDA 15.148). The grant funding supports a feasibility study to explore the potential for developing renewable energy resources, such as solar photovoltaic systems or a single wind turbine, that could provide a secure, reliable, and resilient power supply to the Caddo Nation community in Binger, Oklahoma. The study will analyze current energy loads, identify solar generation opportunities to meet those loads, and quantify the financial savings and environmental impact over time. The Caddo Nation will also investigate the feasibility of a utility-scale wind or solar project as a revenue-generating opportunity. This project aims to improve the community's energy resilience, expand development opportunities, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and achieve energy independence for the tribe.
