Indiana Offers Grants for Solar Water Heaters

Indiana is opening its purse to help some of the state's businesses, schools and municipalities offset the costs of installing large solar water heating systems.

Eligible recipients that use more than 100,000 gallons of hot water each year can receive up to $25,000 under the Indiana Solar Thermal grant program.

Applicants must provide 75 percent of the project cost through private funding.

The Indiana Office of Energy Development is offering a total of $150,000 to businesses, municipalities, schools and nonprofits. Applications will be accepted from Aug. 1 to Sept. 1.

The program is funded by the U.S. Department of Energy and the State Energy Program.
