Huge grant worth $40million is awarded to help families lower energy bills

The DOE was given $40 million to help with rising energy costs.  The funds will go towards disadvantaged communities in need of an energy efficiency upgrade.  Through weatherization and electrification, thousands of Americans will save money on their utility bills. U.S Secretary of Energy Jennifer M. Granholm believes the initiative will also develop the next generation of a clean energy workforce.
