Capitalizing on Climate Cash: State Strategies for Leveraging Federal Funding
April 19, 2023 @ 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm
With hundreds of billions of climate dollars unlocked by recent federal funding initiatives, including the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), states must be prepared to receive and leverage their money for climate and clean energy plans, projects, and programs. Many states across the country have already introduced and even passed legislation to create or strengthen state and local funding bodies and initiatives for this purpose, using various methods, from statewide green banks to specific federal matching funds and more.
To explore the approaches some states have taken, Climate XChange invited a panel of experts, including:
- Fresh Energy’s Anjali Bains, Lead Director of Energy Access and Equity
- Nevada Clean Energy Fund‘s Kirsten Stasio, Chief Executive Officer
