Community Energy Development

Advancing locally driven, clean energy solutions

COMMUNITY ENERGY DEVELOPMENT

We are working to significantly increase the pace of clean energy development in the Pacific Northwest by helping rural and indigenous communities plan for, fund, and build locally driven, clean energy projects. This includes:

Energy assessments.
Finance modeling.
Grant writing and fundraising.
Support during construction.

Projects include energy efficiency and renewables such as solar, biomass, micro-hydro, geothermal, and wind power.

Locally driven clean energy projects help communities advance their energy independence while reducing climate pollution and supporting local economies. Currently, rural and indigenous communities face numerous barriers to building clean energy projects, including limited capacity, technical assistance, pre-development planning, and funding.
