SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Background: The Secretary of Commerce established the REEEAC 
pursuant to discretionary authority and in accordance with the Federal 
Advisory Committee Act, as amended (5 U.S.C. 1001 et seq.), on July 14, 
2010. The REEEAC was re-chartered most recently on May 27, 2022. The 
REEEAC provides the Secretary of Commerce with advice from the private 
sector on the development and administration of programs and policies 
to expand the export competitiveness of U.S. renewable energy and 
energy efficiency products and services. More information about the 
REEEAC, including the list of appointed members for this charter, is 
published online at http://trade.gov/reeeac.
    On January 25, 2024, the REEEAC will hold the sixth meeting of its 
current charter term. The Committee will deliberate on approval of 
several recommendations. The REEEAC will also be briefed on recent ITA 
accomplishments of relevance to the U.S. renewable energy and energy 
efficiency industries, including the delegation to COP28, the launch of 
the Clean Tech Top Export Markets website, and the establishment of the 
Supply Chain Center. The agenda will be made available by January 22, 
2024 upon request to Cora Dickson, and the most current version of the 
agenda will also be made available on the REEEAC website.
    The meeting will be open to the public and will be accessible to 
people with disabilities. All guests are required to register in 
advance by the deadline identified under the DATES caption. Requests 
for auxiliary aids must be submitted by the registration deadline. Last 
minute requests will be accepted but may not be possible to fill.
    A limited amount of time before the close of the meeting will be 
available for oral comments from members of the public attending the 
meeting. Members of the public attending virtually who wish to speak 
during the public comment period must give the DFO advance notice in 
order to facilitate their access. To accommodate as many speakers as 
possible, the time for public comments will be limited to two to five 
minutes per person (depending on number of public participants). 
Individuals wishing to reserve speaking time during the meeting must 
contact Cora Dickson using the contact information above and submit a 
brief statement of the general nature of the comments, as well as the 
name and address of the proposed participant, by 5 p.m. EDT on Monday, 
January 22, 2024. If the number of registrants requesting to make 
statements is greater than can be reasonably accommodated during the 
meeting, the International Trade Administration may conduct a lottery 
to determine the speakers. Speakers are requested to submit a copy of 
their oral comments by email to Cora Dickson for distribution to the 
participants in advance of the meeting.
    Any member of the public may submit written comments concerning the 
REEEAC's affairs at any time before or after the meeting. Comments may
