TVA Launches School Uplift, Investing $7.3 Million In 160 Schools Monday, May 17, 2021
Tennessee Valley Authority is investing $7.3 million in a new School Uplift program over the next three years. School Uplift trains school personnel to reduce their schools’ energy use and save money. The state of Tennessee’s Energy Efficient Schools Initiative is partnering with TVA and has provided an initial $600,000 in matching funds. Tight budgets and aging buildings have left many schools facing the difficult choice to fund learning programs or facility upgrades. A new program by the TVA will help 160 public schools in seven states solve that problem, officials said.
