Biden administration announces $500M for energy efficiency in public schools
The Biden administration on Monday announced a $500 million grant program to improve energy efficiency in public schools.
The initiative, paid for with funds from the bipartisan infrastructure law, will prioritize schools facing the greatest need, according to administration officials. Vice President Harris is set to announce the initiative Monday afternoon at Neville Thomas Elementary School in Washington, D.C., which installed solar panels in 2016 that now comprise 10 percent of its energy usage.
