DOVER — Businesses looking to improve energy efficiency and reduce costs through the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control’s Energy Efficiency Investment Fund can apply for the program online.

The online portal replaces the current practice of accepting applications in all other formats and will make applying faster and easier for customers, increase the efficiency of reviewing files and improve communication between applicants and program staff.

The EEIF provides grants to help commercial and industrial customers replace aging, inefficient equipment and systems with energy-efficient alternatives.

Users can enter project information, including materials and energy savings, into simple tables. The portal contains specialized calculators that streamline the details provided by the applicant to generate an estimated total project cost and grant award.

Applicants can also share and store documents, allowing the EEIF team to communicate clearly and directly with the applicant.
