Welcome to the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) Tribal Energy Program Web site. The Tribal Energy Program promotes tribal energy sufficiency and fosters economic development and employment on tribal lands through the use of renewable energy and energy efficiency technologies.

The program, part of DOE's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, provides financial and technical assistance to tribes to evaluate and develop their renewable energy resources and reduce their energy consumption through efficiency and weatherization.

The program also offers education and training opportunities to help build the knowledge and skills essential for sustainable energy projects.

For more information, please read our program brochure.
