State notifies board that microgrid grant is paused pending federal policy changes
Summary
Board chair reported that a state microgrid grant application has been put on hold after an apparent federal policy change; staff will circulate the state's notice and revisit the project if the program is restored.
The Housing Board received an update that a microgrid grant application the board had pursued is on hold pending federal policy changes.
A board member reported that, according to correspondence from the state, the federal administration has suspended or placed the grant program on hiatus. The board member said she would circulate the state email to the board and the power company and that, based on current information, the grant “is on hiatus.”
