Anderson County will act as a conduit for Bosch and its affiliate to seek $240,000 in state energy grants. The Anderson County Council agreed to that during last week's meeting. Anderson County would only be “acting as a pass-through” for Bosch and Associated Fuel Pumps Systems Corporation, commonly called AFCO. That company is owned by Bosch and Denso International America.Bosch is seeking $105,000 from the South Carolina Energy Office and AFCO is seeking $135,000. Bosch said that if the companies are successful in getting the South Carolina grants, they will be used for lighting upgrades at AFCO and a heating, ventilation and air-conditioning management system at Bosch’s Anderson plant. Bosch is working with the county to apply for two grants. State-level decisions about the grant awards will be made in August and September. If the companies get the grants, the checks will be issued to Anderson County. Within 24 hours, the county will then issue checks in the companies’ names.
