SUMMARY:Noontime Knowledge: Clean Energy Manufacturing in Appalachia Program
DESCRIPTION:Federal Programs that Manufacturing Companies can use to Upgrade Facilities and Lower Energy Bills\n\n\n\nClean Energy Manufacturing in Appalachia Program:\n\nThe Clean Energy Manufacturing in Appalachia Program is a collaborative initiative spanning multiple states\, aiding over 1\,000 small- to medium-sized manufacturers (SMMs) in over 150 counties across Appalachian regions in Pennsylvania\, Maryland\, New York\, Ohio\, and West Virginia. The allocated funds will be utilized for offering training\, technical support\, supply chain mapping\, and advice on factory enhancements. These resources aim to assist manufacturers involved in renewable energy\, hydrogen power\, low-carbon and decarbonized power\, smart grid advancements\, electric vehicles\, and sustainable building projects. The Clean Energy Manufacturing in Appalachia program offers mini-grants to manufacturers up to $10\,000 and can connect them to millions of dollars in available grants and tax incentives from federal\, state and regional sources. Tom Reed and Matt Henderson will speak about how the clean energy industry can benefit regional manufacturers and their communities\n\n\n\nTom Reed Bio: \n\nTom oversees communications and project management for many of Catalyst Connection's programs that benefit southwestern Pennsylvania and neighboring communities.

Matt has delivered hundreds of presentations to elected officials\, landowners\, royalty owners\, industry trade groups and government agencies educating them on the process\, risks\, opportunities and intricacies of unconventional shale development. As part of the education process\, he has organized and led over 100 tours to view and learn about the development process within the Appalachian Basin.\n\n\n\nMatt develops marketing and business strategies for businesses and entrepreneurs looking to capitalize on shale development in the United States and international markets.
