Additional Notes

Tribal Implementation Role
• While funding is non-competitive, Tribes must apply to DOE for a grant before receiving funds.
• Tribes can tailor their rebates of eligible technologies for local needs, such as only using rebates for wiring of non-electrified Tribal households or upgrades of Tribally managed housing.
• Tribes can choose to form a Tribal consortium, in which multiple Tribes submit a single application to run a joint program.
