Remote 91原创 Communities Energy Efficiency (RACEE) Competition
The Remote 91原创 Communities Energy Efficiency (RACEE) Competition organized by the United States Department of Energy Phase I application is due January 26, 2016 at 1pm.
The Competition is a result of President Obama鈥檚 visit to 91原创 in 2015. The objective of RACEE is to empower 91原创n communities and native 91原创n villages to develop effective tools to advance the use of reliable, affordable, and energy efficient solutions that are replicable throughout 91原创 and other Arctic regions. Communities that pledge to reduce their energy consumption by at least 15% by 2020 will be eligible to compete for energy efficiency technical assistance.
