Grant for reducing refrigerant emissions

The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency is offering approximately $110,000 for projects. Maximum grant award: $20,000 per applicant.
Application deadline: August 31st
Apply today: Grants for reducing refrigerant emissions
Many of the chemicals that power our refrigeration systems across Minnesota pose problems for the environment. These refrigerants can either contribute to climate change or damage the ozone layer when they leak from systems.
 
Replacing systems that leak refrigerant or that use refrigerants with a high global warming potential (GWP) can reduce harm to the environment and often lower operating costs.
 
Funding available: The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency is offering approximately $110,000 for projects that will replace existing refrigeration equipment with new equipment that uses a refrigerant with at least 50% less GWP.
 
Eligibility: Eligible applicants must operate a refrigeration unit in a retail setting (such as a grocery store, convenience store, or liquor store) in Minnesota. For-profit businesses applying must have 250 full-time employees or fewer. Governmental entities, non-profit organizations, tribes, and educational institutions may have any number of employees.
 
Maximum grant award: $20,000 per applicant. Applicants must match at least 25% of the total project cost. Matching funds must be cash and may be obtained through loans or other non-state grants if the applicant chooses.
 
Application deadline: August 31, 2022 (4 p.m. CDT)
See the Refrigerant emission reduction grants webpage for the request for proposals (RFP) with full details on eligible projects, who may apply, and information that will help applicants submit a proposal.
Frontline Worker Pay

You may by eligible for Frontline Worker Pay. Applications are open June 8 - July 22

Employers must provide notice to all employees who may be eligible by June 23rd.
