DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Financial Assistance Award; Energy Efficiency Export Council
AGENCY: Department of Energy.
ACTION: Notice of noncompetitive financial assistance award.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Pursuant to 10 CFR 600.7(b)(2)(i)(D), the U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE) Region I Support Office, through the Golden Field Office,
intends to award additional funds for two additional tasks to be
completed under an existing grant to the Energy Efficiency Export
Council (EEEC). The grant provided funding for a series of tasks
related to export promotion of U.S. energy efficiency products and
services. The EEEC efforts are on behalf of and in collaboration with
the Committee on Energy Efficiency Commerce and Trade (COEECT). COEECT
functions as the Federal Interagency Working Subgroup on Energy
Efficiency established by section 1207 of the Energy Policy Act of
1992, H.R. 776 (EPACT).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The two additional tasks, which were
negotiated with the DOE, Office of Technical Assistance (OTA),
establishes funding to place two specialists in financing of energy
efficiency/demand side management projects at the European Bank for
Reconstruction and Development (EBRD). The specialists, who will be
accessible to the U.S. Director at EBRD, will help U.S. companies
obtain financing for energy efficiency projects in Europe and the
former Soviet Union. The completion of these tasks should result in an
increase in exports of U.S. energy efficiency products and services.
Total additional funding is $66,025.
Noncompetitive financial assistance to EEEC is in accordance with
the justifying criteria presented in 10 CFR 600. The DOE/OTA has
determined that EEEC has exclusive domestic capability to represent and
interact with the U.S. energy efficiency products and services
industry, and, is, therefore, uniquely capable to fulfill many aspects
of the mission established for the COEECT by section 1207 of EPACT.
