Department of Environmental Protection’s 2020 Small Business Advantage Grant Accepting Applications

07/27/2020

The Department of Environmental Protection’s 2020 Small Business Advantage Grant is now accepting applications.  This grant provides Pennsylvania small businesses the opportunity to acquire energy efficient or pollution prevention technologies with a 50% reimbursement matching grant for equipment or materials.

Pennsylvania businesses with fewer than 100 full-time equivalent employees are eligible to apply.  Applicants must be for-profit entities, be located in Pennsylvania, and registered with the Pennsylvania Department of State.  Eligible projects must save the applicant a minimum of $500 annually and reduce their costs by a minimum of 25%.  Applications are reviewed and awarded on a First-Come, First-Served basis.  I recommend applying as soon as possible.

New this year is the opportunity for farmers to install solar water pumping projects provided they offer off-site watering facilities for livestock in grazing fields.  Solar projects generating electricity (ex. Rooftop PV) are not eligible.

Short instructional videos to assist small businesses with completing the application are now available.  Interested applicants are encouraged to participate in a webinar held on Wednesday, July 29 at 11:00 a.m.  The webinar will review the guidelines for the 2020-21 grant year.  Applicants and contractors are encouraged to participate. To join the webinar, click here.  Once at the website, if you have Skype, click on “Join with Skype for Business (desktop)”.  If you do not have Skype, click on “Install and join with Skype Meetings App (web)” to run a temporary web application.  To participate via audio only, call 267-332-8737, use conference ID number 522347507#.
