State launches energy and water efficiency recognition program
The Iowa Economic Development Authority (IEDA) has been awarded a $74,110 grant from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Pollution Prevention Program to launch a pilot statewide industrial energy and water efficiency recognition program. The new Iowa EDGE (Economic Development by Gaining Efficiency) program is a statewide recognition program that will engage industrial stakeholders in undertaking energy and water efficiency projects to lower energy costs. The IEDA will provide a one-to-one match of the EPA grant funds. More information on the program can be found here.
