The program aims to modernize factories and reduce their environmental impact.
Key points
Manufacturing companies can receive financial aid for energy audits and implementing energy and water-saving solutions.
Indian Tribes and manufacturers in their territories will receive at least 5% of available funds for energy support.
The program aims to enhance industrial competitiveness, reduce emissions, and utilize modern technologies like artificial intelligence.
100 million dollars annually will be authorized for fiscal years 2022 through 2026 to carry out these programs.
