Opportunity: Recovery Act: Training Program Development ...

Description 

DE-FOA-0000118, Recovery Act: Training Program Development for Commercial Building Equipment Technicians, Building Operators, Energy Commissioning Agents/Auditors: Projects under this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) will be funded, in whole or in part, with funds appropriated by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, Pub. L. 111-5, (Recovery Act or Act). The Recovery Act's purposes are to stimulate the economy and to create and retain jobs. The Act gives preference to activities that can be started and completed expeditiously. Accordingly, special consideration will be given to projects that promote and enhance the objectives of the Act, especially job creation, preservation and economic recovery, in an expeditious manner. The Department of Energy (DOE) National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), on behalf of the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) Building Technologies Program (BTP), is seeking applications for projects that focus on developing training programs for various building specialists. The programs shall use existing curricula or develop new training curricula for their course content. To achieve the full potential of energy efficient (and eventual net zero-energy) buildings, our Nation needs commercial building equipment technicians, operators, and energy commissioning agents/auditors who know how to properly run and tune building systems. The combination of efficient operations and advanced design will improve the internal built environment: its energy use, comfort, safety, and environmental impact. Given the subject matter expertise of the Building Technologies staff as well as an extensive stakeholder network, the Department of Energy is uniquely positioned to execute this initiative and add value. The Building Technologies Program intends to award a number of cooperative agreements through this FOA to develop training programs for implementation upon completion of awarded project(s).
