The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law(link is external) (BIL), also known as the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), provides formula-based funds to states to improve the resilience of the electric grid against disruptive events. The Missouri Department of Natural Resources is the Governor’s designated lead agency for receiving and administering these funds through its Division of Energy. 

The department is offering up to $13 million in total funding to improve the all-hazards resilience of the electric grid against disruptive events and prevent outages. Funds are only available for projects located in Missouri. Funding amounts over the next two federal fiscal years are contingent on U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) allocations.

For additional information, please contact the department's Division of Energy at 573-751-2254 or energy@dnr.mo.gov(link sends email). Please refer to the Grid Resilience Formula Funding Program Request for Proposals for more information.
