Opportunity Summary:
The State Energy Program 2015 Competitive Awards (Funding Opportunity Number DE-FOA-0001222) was a discretionary funding opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Energy through its Golden Field Office. It fell under the Energy funding activity category and was associated with CFDA number 81.119, State Energy Program Special Projects. The instrument type was a cooperative agreement, which typically means that DOE expected to be substantially involved during the project period rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. In practice, that can include closer coordination, more structured reporting, and active federal participation in shaping or monitoring the work as it progresses.
The opportunity was specifically limited to eligible applicants from state governments, reflecting the State Energy Program's core role in supporting state-led energy initiatives. A cost sharing or matching requirement applied, meaning applicants were expected to contribute non-federal resources toward the total project cost. While the source data does not specify the percentage or the types of allowable match, this requirement generally pushes applicants to demonstrate commitment, leverage additional investment, and scale the impact of federal dollars through state funds or other eligible non-federal contributions.
The announcement was posted and created on January 20, 2015, with an original and final application deadline of March 31, 2015. The archive date was June 30, 2015, indicating the opportunity was no longer active after that point. The listing does not provide a stated estimated total funding amount, award ceiling, or award floor, with all shown as 0 in the source fields. That usually signals that the public synopsis record did not include those amounts, that the totals varied and were detailed only in the full announcement, or that awards were contingent on appropriations and final DOE decisions.
For applicants or interested parties seeking the full solicitation package or having trouble accessing it electronically, the announcement directed users to DOE's EERE Exchange site (https://eere-exchange.energy.gov/), which is the department's platform for publishing, submitting, and managing many energy efficiency and renewable energy funding opportunities. A contact was provided for access issues: Debbie Reynolds, reachable at debbie.reynolds@ee.doe.gov.
