Types of technical assistance offered:

Direct Technical Assistance: RAP will engage a small cadre of experts on EE program design and implementation to assist grantees one-on-one through phone consultations or other means. This type of assistance will be short-term, hands-on to help grantees respond and engage in regulatory proceedings and other decision-making venues in the strongest way possible.

Capacity Building: Technical assistance of a capacity-building nature will be made available to participants through a variety of means, including webinars, workshops and written materials. These are designed to enhance your organization's ability to:

critically evaluate EE and related proposals
make constructive proposals and suggestions
direct the work of consultants that you may engage for a particular regulatory proceeding
sustain your staff’s efforts to identify and address key EE implementation issues in a variety of forums.
