Where can I find a list of goverment grants provided to an alternative energy company?

I'm currently in the process of starting up a business that manufactures energy efficent homes, and I'd like to find out what types of government funding would be available.

I've already checked the Dept. of Energy website and couldn't find what I was looking for.
