SUMMARY:Beyond NEVI: Exploring new funding opportunities for electric vehicle planning and infrastructure in Nevada
DESCRIPTION:The Southwest Energy Efficiency Project (SWEEP) hosted an online webinar for the state of Nevada that covered topics on how to best utilize federal funds from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to bolster the state’s efforts to electrify their trucking fleets\, accelerate general vehicle electrification\, and install the necessary level of electric vehicle charging infrastructure to support private and public use. \nWATCH THE WEBINAR:

SUMMARY:Electrify your home in 2023
DESCRIPTION:With natural gas prices high and federal and state tax credits in place\, 2023 is a great year to explore adding a new heat pump to your home. In this webinar\, the Southwest Energy Efficiency Project (SWEEP) highlights the key points to consider in electrifying both new and existing homes — for homeowners\, new homebuyers\, and HVAC contractors\, as well as utilities\, local governments\, and new homebuilders. Also highlighted are the federal and state tax credits and utility rebates\, which will more than cover the cost of replacing/upgrading your central AC to a heat pump system to deliver heating and cooling to your home. The webinar shows examples of homes making this type of upgrade\, and of all-electric new homes with very low energy costs and excellent indoor air quality. \nVIEW PRESENTATION SLIDES \nWATCH THE WEBINAR:

SUMMARY:Energy equity: Bringing the benefits of our fight against climate change to frontline communities
DESCRIPTION:As climate change brings more devastating impacts to the Southwest\, it’s more important than ever to include low-income and frontline communities in climate action plans. We will not reach our climate goals if we do not include this large segment of the population in these strategic plans. More importantly\, frontline communities are often the first to feel the impacts of global warming and the group to experience the worst of those impacts. It is vital that we focus on inclusion of these communities in all of SWEEP’s carbon reduction work. \nIn this webinar\, SWEEP’s Tammy Fiebelkorn and New Mexico Representative Kristina Ortez discussed this important focus and highlighted program and policy examples that assist low-income communities to reduce carbon emissions\, reduce their energy costs\, and improve public health. \nWATCH THE WEBINAR\n\nVIEW THE PRESENTATION SLIDES \nRepresentative Ortez and Tammy work together on a variety of programs and policies to fight climate change and help frontline communities. They created and received legislative approval for the Community Energy Efficiency Development Block Grant Act in New Mexico which provides energy burden reductions for frontline communities via energy efficiency and beneficial electrification; and they also passed legislation providing tax credits\, which double for low-income people\, for improving the energy efficiency of homes.
