Notice of Request for Information; 

Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL)— 

Request for Information on Energy 

Improvements at Public School 

Facilities 

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy, Department of 

Energy. 

ACTION: Request for information. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of 

Energy (DOE) invites public comment 

on its request for information (RFI) 

number DE–FOA–0002715 regarding the 

implementation of the Infrastructure 

Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), Grants 

for Energy Efficiency Improvements and 

Renewable Energy Improvements at 

Public School Facilities. The purpose of 

this RFI is to solicit feedback from Local 

Education Agencies (LEAs), school staff, 

states, local governments, energy service 

companies, unions, service providers, 

utilities, researchers, community 

partners, manufacturers, and other 

stakeholders on issues related to 

program development and execution of 

IIJA. The Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy (EERE) is specifically 

interested in information on capacity 

development and technical assistance 

needs of applicants and their 

stakeholders and partners; how to 

define, support, and leverage the needs 

assessments required of applicants; 

initial methodologies for evaluating 

priority eligibility and award metrics; 

potential partnerships structures and 

models to achieve the goals of the 

provision and maximize impact; 

pathways and models to leverage the 

financial investments to reach more 

facilities and achieve deeper impact; 

and workforce development. 

DATES: Responses to the RFI must be 

received by 5:00 p.m. (ET) on May 18, 

2022. 

ADDRESSES: Interested parties are to 

submit comments electronically to 

SchoolsRFI@doe.gov. Include ‘‘Schools 

RFI Response’’ in the subject line of the 

email. Responses must be provided as 

attachments to an email. It is 

recommended that attachments with file 

sizes exceeding 25MB be compressed 

(i.e., zipped) to ensure message delivery.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

100,000 public K–12 schools across the 

United States (U.S.) contain the 

classrooms, libraries, cafeterias, 

playgrounds, and gyms where 50 

million students learn, eat, build 

friendships, and exercise. As the second 

largest sector of public infrastructure 

spending in the U.S., public K–12 

schools are also a center of our 

communities, serving as voting and 

polling locations, emergency shelters, 

and community gathering places. The 

significant under-investment in energy 

improvements at American schools, 

however, results in unnecessarily high 

utility costs and contributes to 

unhealthy and uncomfortable 

environments for students, teachers, and 

staff. 

The Infrastructure Investment and 

Jobs Act (IIJA) (Pub. L. 117–58), 

American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 

(ARP) (Pub. L. 117–2), and 2021 

Coronavirus Response and Relief 

Supplemental Appropriations Act 

(CRRSAA) (Pub. L. 116–260, Div. M), 

provide tens of billions of dollars in 

new funding to U.S. K–12 public 

schools for facility and transportation 

improvements. Strategic use of this 

funding will help remedy the historic 

inequity of school facilities investments, 

reduce school energy expenditures, help 

schools lead the nation in solving the 

climate crisis, and create good-paying 

union jobs. 

Through this RFI, the U.S. 

Department of Energy (DOE) Office of 

Energy Efficiency and Renewable 

Energy (EERE) seeks input regarding the 

implementation of Section 40541 of the 

IIJA, which provides $500 million for 

grants for energy improvements 1 at 

public school facilities. DOE aims to 

facilitate substantial additional 

investment, prioritize schools with high 

needs, minimize administrative burden, 

and build enduring capacity in local 

educational agencies (LEAs) and the 

states to maximize impact equitably and 

efficiently. DOE is seeking information 

amongst these six categories of 

questions: 

1. Capacity Development for Local Education 

Agencies 

2. Needs Assessments 

3. Criteria and Metrics 

4. Workforce 

5. Leveraging Funds 

6. Partnership Structures 

The RFI is available at: https://eereexchange.energy.gov/. 

Confidential Business Information: 

Pursuant to 10 CFR 1004.11, any person 

submitting information that he or she 

believes to be confidential and exempt 

by law from public disclosure should 

submit via email, postal mail, or hand 

delivery two well-marked copies: One 

copy of the document marked 

‘‘confidential’’ including all the 

information believed to be confidential, 

and one copy of the document marked 

‘‘non-confidential’’ with the information 

believed to be confidential deleted. 

Submit these documents via email or on 

a CD, if feasible. DOE will make its own 

determination about the confidential 

status of the information and treat it 

according to its determination. 

Signing Authority: This document of 

the Department of Energy was signed on 

April 1, 2022, by Kelly J. SpeakesBackman, Principal Deputy Assistant
