Oregon advances an $11.5 million 2026 Grid Resilience Grant Program round

Oregon's 2026 §40101(d)-aligned round proposes $11.5 million for nine utility projects, including undergrounding, covered conductors, vegetation management, and automation. Separate county energy-security planning awards of $50,000 to 18 counties provide adjacent planning context, while project awards and DOE approval status for the utility round still require confirmation.
