Join the Clean Energy Business Network for a webinar on securing capital for clean energy projects. The event will provide accessible, actionable information geared for small businesses, community-based organizations, and state/local governments at all levels of expertise and experience. Expert panelists include service providers who help communities and entrepreneurs navigate and win public grants, along with successful awardees of the Environmental Protection Agency’s Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) and the Department of Energy’s Community Clean Energy Coalition Prize and EPIC Prize and ample time will be provided for audience Q&A and discussion.

- Identifying the most readily available, lowest barrier to entry funding sources to get started.
- Leveraging these resources to build institutional capacity and gradually compete for larger and more complex funding programs.
