Financing for decarbonization projects is essential to the rapid deployment of clean energy, but it can be hard to get, especially for underserved communities. That’s why the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 allocates billions of dollars to help accelerate the clean energy transition. Now, state and local green banks need to apply for the funds – they just need to know about the opportunity first. We can help serve as connectors between government entities by telling green banks how to apply.
