Proposed Agency Information
Collection
Office of Energy Efficiency and
Renewable Energy, U.S. Department of
Energy.
ACTION: Notice and Request for OMB
Review and Comment.
AGENCY:
The Department of Energy
(DOE) has submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
clearance, a proposal for collection of
information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The
proposed collection will gather
information on solar energy market
indicators. The Solar Energy
Technologies Program (SETP) seeks to
reduce non-hardware costs of solar
systems associated with processes such
as project siting, permitting and
interconnection, system installation,
and project financing. In order to direct
strategic investments toward reducing
those costs, the Agency requires
information on the current status of
non-hardware costs and the underlying
cost drivers. Questions for this
collection are focused on permitting
processes, interconnection processes,
available financing options, and
planning and zoning issues as they
relate to rooftop solar PV installations.
DATES: Comments regarding this
collection must be received on or before
October 3, 2011. If you anticipate that
you will be submitting comments, but
find it difficult to do so within the
period of time allowed by this notice,
please advise the DOE Desk Officer at
OMB of your intention to make a
submission as soon as possible. The
Desk Officer may be telephoned at 202–
395–4650.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should
be sent to the
DOE Desk Officer, Office of Information
and Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget, New
Executive Office Building, Room
10102, 735 17th Street, NW.,
Washington, DC 20503.
