SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the Consolidated Appropriations

will support innovations in financing and conducting applied research
to address primary barriers to the retrofitting of certain multifamily
residential properties to be more energy efficient on a cost effective
basis. The goals of this NOFA are to: (1) Demonstrate solutions to the
primary and longstanding challenges to implementing energy efficiency
and renewable energy improvements in existing affordable multifamily
properties; (2) leverage private capital and additional public funding
to demonstrate ``proof of concept'' of specific models; and (3) conduct
applied research to document and disseminate mainstream, scalable
approaches to retrofitting affordable multifamily properties.
The Department published its Energy Innovation Fund--Multifamily
Pilot Program (EIF) Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) on August 22,
2011 announcing the availability of $25,000,000 out of the Department's
FY 2010 budget appropriation, to be utilized for EIF projects and
activities. Funding availability for Financing Demonstration Components
was capped at $7,500,000 and for Applied Research Demonstration
Components, the maximum award amount was $3,000,000 to any applicant.
The Department reviewed, evaluated and scored the applications
received based on the criteria in the FY 2010 NOFA. As a result, HUD
has funded the twelve applications announced in Appendix A, and in
accordance with section 102(a)(4)(C) of the Department of Housing and
Urban Development Reform Act of 1989 (103 Stat. 1987, 42 U.S.C. 3545),
the Department is hereby publishing details identifying the recipients
of funding awards and their scope of work in Appendix A of this
