FOR POTENTIAL BORROWERS

LPO provides debt financing for the commercial deployment of large-scale energy projects; however, for research, development, and demonstration (RD&D) and smaller projects, other offices within DOE offer funding and financing opportunities. For example, the Homeowner’s Guide to Going Solar provides valuable information from DOE’s Solar Energy Technologies Office about financing home and small commercial solar systems.

Potential applicants are encouraged to engage directly with DOE’s Loan Programs Office (LPO) for no-fee, no-commitment consultations to discuss their proposed project and learn about LPO’s process before formally applying. During the consultations, LPO will work with you to determine whether the project is eligible for a loan or loan guarantee. See the Request a Pre-Application Consultation page to learn more.
