The Oregon Department of Energy (ODOE) has selected 50 recipients to receive about $834,000 in Early Compliance Action and Planning Program incentives.

"The Oregon Department of Energy is proud to support building owners in their efforts to comply with Oregon's Building Performance Standard," said ODOE Director Janine Benner. "Energy efficiency is one of the five key pathways identified in the Oregon Energy Strategy to move toward a clean energy future that maintains affordability and reliability. Meeting building performance standards offers a significant opportunity to reduce energy use and costs."
