Of the $13 million, 97 cities and towns will land $12.2 million in Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grants (EECBG) from the U.S. Department of Energy, while 35 communities will get a piece of the $825,000 in technical consulting services. The individual grants have a cap of $150,000 that will be used for shovel-ready community projects.
