Affordable Rural Cooperative (ARC) Energy Program
Solicitation # RUS-ARC-2026
The Affordable Rural Cooperative (ARC) Energy Program, administered by the Rural Utilities Service (RUS) under the USDA, is providing approximately 175 million dollars in loan and grant funding to support the deployment of emission-free nuclear power supply and advanced transmission infrastructure. Authorized under Section 22004 of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, the program aims to increase the resiliency, reliability, and affordability of rural electric systems while achieving significant net emission reductions. Funding is split equally between two categories: Eligible Energy and Transmission Energy Efficiency Improvements. For project and system loans, the RUS will finance up to 75 percent of total capitalized costs, requiring awardees to provide at least 25 percent in cash or equity, though certain grants or tax credits may be used toward this requirement. The application process is a two-stage competition starting with a Letter of Interest (LOI) submitted via Grants.gov between October 19, 2026, and November 20, 2026. Eligible entities must have an active SAM registration and a Unique Entity Identifier to apply. LOIs are evaluated based on reliability, resiliency, affordability, financial feasibility, and project timing, with the New Clean Power Tool used to measure projected emission reductions. Only those who receive an Invitation to Proceed may submit a full application within 90 days of the invitation. Awarded projects must commence after the notice publication date and be completed by September 30, 2031, with a performance period of four years from the date of environmental clearance. All awardees must comply with Buy America requirements and federal non-discrimination laws.
