Green Guide to the 2009 Stimulus Package - Second Edition Special Release

Washington, DC (PRWEB) June 9, 2009 -- On February 17, President Barack Obama signed into law the "American Recovery and Reinvestment Act" (ARRA), providing a historic opportunity to make our nation more energy efficient, environmentally sustainable and economically secure. To help navigate the vast amount of stimulus-related information and resources, the Green Stimulus Guide is the leading information resource that is specific to green building, clean energy and energy efficiency opportunities within the ARRA.

The Green Stimulus Guide (http://www.greenstimulusguide.com), is easy-to-use and helps readers navigate all the grants, legislation, funding opportunities, state and federal agencies, and useful resources for success with the ARRA. The guide is useful for building owners, contractors, consultants, architects, engineers, energy service companies, or general eco-enthusiasts, and helps to uncover market opportunities for energy efficiency, green buildings, clean energy and smart grids.

The Green Stimulus Guide provides a useful summary of the ARRA and categorizes opportunities, tips and resources state-by-state and sector-by-sector. The authors reviewed extensive government documents and useful articles, and consulted with numerous industry experts and government officials to gather all relevant information into a single user manual.

This second edition downloadable e-guide provides valuable up-to-date insider tips and information on green initiatives by Federal agency; how to apply for grants, loans and other funding opportunities; specific green initiatives in weatherization, energy retrofits, smart grids and green buildings; and useful tools and resources available for success.
