Opportunity Information: Apply for DE FOA 0003316
The Inflation Reduction Act's State-Based Home Energy Efficiency Contractor Training Program, often referred to as the TREC Program, is aimed at enhancing the skills of contractors in energy efficiency and electrification. This initiative has three main objectives:
1. To lower training costs for contractors and their employees by offering workforce development resources, including financial support for training and certification necessary for high-quality jobs. 2. To certify contractors who are trained in installing energy efficiency and electrification technologies, ensuring they can effectively implement these improvements in residential settings. 3. To enable states to collaborate with nonprofit organizations to develop workforce programs that attract and train a diverse workforce for new federally-funded energy initiatives.
The program, established under the Inflation Reduction Act, has up to 40 million dollars available for states, territories, and the District of Columbia, adding to existing TREC funding.
Two specific topic areas are highlighted for funding:
- **Topic Area 1** focuses on training small contractor firms to certify their employees, enabling them to deliver eligible energy efficiency improvements. - **Topic Area 2** aims to support innovative and equitable workforce development programs that train a diverse group of workers, including underrepresented populations and youth, for jobs in energy efficiency and electrification.
