Z – Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act
Federal Funding for Aging Infrastructure
Veregy’s Solutions for IIJA
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) has been signed into law, providing funds dedicated to improving the essential facilities and infrastructure systems that keep our cities, airports, and schools running efficiently. Veregy’s team of experienced energy professionals has the knowledge and the expertise to help you invest IIJA funding where it matters most -back into our communities.
IIJA was created to help modernize our infrastructure, to help America reduce our carbon footprint, and increase our renewable energy sources. Veregy is a leader in implementation of energy efficient strategies and solutions, and we’re passionate about helping our clients meet their sustainability goals.
With locations across the nation, Veregy is ready and able to put federal funding to work for you.
Local Government
Cities and Counties will have access to $550 million in block and competitive energy efficiency grants. If your community needs updated infrastructure, renewable energy or a cleaner, more efficient fleet, our team of engineers will help you identify opportunities and apply for funding.
Electric Vehicles & Buses
Our in depth knowledge of electric vehicle infrastructure and O&M services allow us to provide complete, beginning-to-end EV solutions. We understand the importance of reducing carbon emissions and implementing modern solutions to meet your sustainability goals.
K12 Schools
Veregy can help your district access the $500 million in Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Grants and funding for EV Buses through the Clean School Bus Program. Our team of engineers are available to provide a need assessment including energy and operational savings to support your grant application.
Smart Grid
Veregy works with communities to plan for power resilience against natural disasters and attach (physical and cyber). Our capabilities include decarbonization, improved energy efficiency and long term predictable energy cost and automated demand management. These technologies and solutions align directly with the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.
Distributed Energy
Solar energy and schools complement each other well. Installing solar panels on schools creates ready-made hands-on learning opportunities for the classroom, turning previously unused roofs or fields into scientific labs and inspiration for student art, writing, and other projects.
IIJA Evaluation
Veregy’s project developer and energy engineers will holistically evaluate the entire facility with an emphasis on IIJA-approved technologies and the effects of implementation. We consider all factors that affect the cost, feasibility, synergies, and operation of various systems. We will gather, review, and confirm technical information and identify missing data needed for the grant application.
After the audit, Veregy will evaluate the ECMs, matching funding needed for the project, scheduling, Buy American requirements and consult with your staff to move forward with the grant application.
Priority will be given to those entities who utilize Energy Savings Performance Contracting.
