The West Penn Power Sustainable Energy Fund is now accepting clean energy proposals for funding in response to an RFP.  The deadlines for proposals is February 27.

Applicants applying for funding do not have to be in the West Penn Power electricity territory, but must demonstrate that the proposed effort can benefit the WPP ratepayer.

Terms are flexible, WPPSEF is easy to work with, and they are looking for innovative projects that will help to sustainably transform our communities.

Funding is focused in six areas:

-- Institutional-scale solar PV farms in the West Penn Power service region;

-- Deployment of clean heat and power technologies;

-- Foster smart energy use by deploying innovative energy efficiency technologies,

-- Clean energy manufacturing in Pennsylvania;

-- Regional-scale sustainable energy programs; and

-- Electric vehicle charging stations at showcase high performance buildings.

A limited number of grants will be considered for nonprofits.
