Projects may be new or for the retrofit of existing renewable and alternative energy infrastructure and must be capable of dispensing fuel or energy not widely available.

USDA must prioritize awarding grants for projects located in rural areas.

Entities that receive funding from USDA must contribute at least 30% of any allotted amount towards the project and are eligible to receive a maximum of $100,000.
