Manufacturing Clean Energy and Energy Efficiency Act of 2021
Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.
Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 117th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Manufacturing Clean Energy and Energy Efficiency Act of 2021
This bill requires the Department of Energy (DOE) to establish a program within the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy that provides grants to small- or medium-sized manufacturers for projects that will (1) improve their energy efficiency, material efficiency, cybersecurity, or productivity; or (2) reduce their waste production, greenhouse gas emissions, or nongreenhouse gas pollution.
In order to be eligible for grants, manufacturers must have completed energy assessments from Industrial Assessment Centers funded by DOE or third-party assessors that provide equivalent assessments. Only projects that have been recommended in energy assessments are eligible for grants.
The bill also authorizes Industrial Assessment Centers to provide technical assistance to small- and medium-sized manufacturers that have completed energy assessments to upgrade, retrofit, or replace systems or infrastructure.
