The Department of Energy is seeking information from state and regional-level entities on their interest in integrating renewable energy deployment into their strategies. The purpose is to identify challenges and assess the need for setting new targets as Renewable Portfolio Standards phase out in many states. Renewable energy technologies such as solar, wind, hydropower, and geothermal are included in this assessment. This Request for Information aims to gather insights for strategic planning, not to provide funding. For more details, refer to the full RFI available on the EERE Exchange website.

| Description: | The purpose of this Request for Information (RFI) is to assess the level of interest among state and regional-level entities—including governmental, industrial, and academic organizations—in including renewable energy deployment into their energy strategies and in identifying specific challenge areas to address. For purposes of this RFI, renewable energy includes solar, wind, hydropower, and geothermal technologies. Renewable energy targets and strategic plans have been set at the state level for many years, sometimes including technology-specific plans and programs. As Renewable Portfolio Standards sunset in many states and as compliance requirements are launched for greenhouse gas reduction, states may wish either to establish or re-evaluate targets for renewable electricity deployment and/or consider the most beneficial paths for achieving those goals. This is solely a request for information and not a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA).
