DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
 

Financial Assistance Award; the National Association of State 
Utility Consumer Advocates

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of unsolicited financial assistance award.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Pursuant to 10 CFR 600.14, the Department of Energy, Boston 
Support Office, intends to award a grant to the National Association of 
State Utility Consumer Advocates (NASUCA). The grant will provide 
funding in the amount of $200,000 for a project entitled: Photovoltaics 
Education Project (PVEP). The work will address various research and 
evaluation tools to identify the realistic values, benefits and costs 
of Photovoltacis. The proposal proposes to educate, train, and support 
state-appointed utility consumer advocates in evaluating cost effective 
installations of photovoltacis and enable them to have full 
participation in hearings and in the collaborative process.
    DOE knows of no other entity that is conducting or planning to 
conduct such an effort. This project is suitable for noncompetitive 
financial assistance and would not be eligible for financial assistance 
under a recent, current, or planned solicitation.
    The initial budget period will be twelve (12) months from the 
effective date of award. The project is expected to run for six years. 
Possible additional funding in future years will be based on 
satisfactory completion of the initial term and upon availability of 
funds.
