Request for Information on Improving Cybersecurity Posture of Rural and Municipal Utilities | DE FOA 0002877

Opportunity Information: Apply for DE FOA 0002877

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is seeking public feedback through a Request for Information (RFI) aimed at enhancing the cybersecurity of rural and municipal utilities. This initiative is part of the Rural and Municipal Utility Advanced Cybersecurity Grant and Technical Assistance (RMUC) Program, established under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.

The RMUC Program's goal is to strengthen the security measures of electric utilities—particularly those that are rural, municipal, or small investor-owned—by investing in their operational capabilities, technology, and participation in threat intelligence sharing. The RFI seeks to gather input that will help shape the program's scope and priorities, ensuring that it effectively addresses the cybersecurity needs of eligible utilities.

It's important to note that this RFI is not a funding opportunity; the DOE is not accepting applications for financial support at this time. Instead, the input collected will assist in planning future funding announcements and related initiatives for the RMUC Program.
