On May 13, 2026, the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Energy Dominance Financing (OEDF) issued updated Program Guidance for the Title 17 Energy Financing Program. The Title 17 program, originally conceived in Title 17 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 and periodically expanded and refined since, enables DOE acting through OEDF to guarantee third-party loans made in support of a variety of qualifying energy-related projects.
