Overview
DOE's RFP guidance for Program Planning, Technical, and Administrative Support - Home Energy Rebates (IRA Sections 50121 and 50122)
Quick Links
This guidance contrasts with DOE’s previous RFP guidance releases, which focused on sample RFP questions for HOMES and HEAR program implementers.
The document is not a sample RFP – it recommends states include standard RFP components – like timeline, staffing plans, and contracting processes – but unlike previous DOE RFP resources, it does not list actual questions states can copy/paste.
