Lighting Projects Now Eligible

The West Virginia Division of Energy has determined that lighting projects are eligible Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant projects. While Courthouse and City Hall projects remain the EE&CBG program's priority, local government lighting projects may seek funding provided that:

The local government applicant owns the existing lighting system.

The new lighting is more efficient that the existing lighting. The application must document the energy savings for the new lighting.

EE&CBG funds are used to pay for the actual cost of lighting and related labor. Costs related to light poles and related labor are not eligible for EE&CBG funding.

Please contact me if you have any questions or interest in pursuing funding for a lighting project. You may reach me at (304)813-7619 outside of my normal office hours.
