Subject: [CPEO-BIF] Fwd: EPA Request for Applications - Renewable Energy Feasibility Studies on Contaminated Properties
 


Begin forwarded message:

Date: March 23, 2011 6:52:44 AM PDT


Through its RE-Powering America’s Land: Siting Renewable Energy on
Potentially Contaminated Land and Mine Sites initiative, The U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is soliciting applications from
states, tribes, regional governments, and communities that want to
evaluate the potential development of renewable energy on potentially or
formerly contaminated properties. This evaluation will be in the form of
a feasibility study conducted by the Department of Energy National
Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) that will determine the best
renewable energy technology for the site, the optimal location for
placement of the renewable energy technology, potential energy
generating capacity, the return on the investment, and the economic
feasibility of the renewable energy projects.  The purpose of the
technical assistance is to reuse sites, improve communities, create
jobs, develop partnerships, decrease the use of greenspace for siting
renewable energy, and increase the amount of renewable energy generated.
Proposals are due to EPA Friday May 20 and may be submitted to
matthews.lura@epa.gov.  More information on the RE-Powering initiative
and the request for applications can be found at

Please share with others who may be interested.
