A NC food pantry got a $100K solar microgrid for $0 by combining a state grant, philanthropic capital and bridge financing. Projected savings: at least 25% off its electric bill, about $5,600/yr back into food assistance.

Analysis from @CenterOnBudget lays out three moves for states serious about energy affordability: expand targeted assistance, make large users like data centers pay their fair share, and remove barriers to cheaper energy.

The green bank model was built to prove out financing in underserved markets so private capital can follow. With less low-cost federal capital, green banks now rely on private partners, bundled lending and shared platforms.

A 6-MW floating solar array now runs on a reservoir in Monroeville, Ohio. No farmland used. With about a third of OH counties restricting utility-scale solar, sites communities already own may be the next place to look.

Faster permitting could get more clean energy and transmission built. It also raises real concerns for tribal nations and frontline communities. Both matter to anyone financing infrastructure.

Illinois, California, and New York are testing whether deliberate, state-led planning can deliver what deregulated markets alone can't. New CATF research breaks down what's working, and where risk remains.

Solar or wind has out-generated nuclear every month since April 2025. For infrastructure investors, the signal is growth rate. Storage added 104 GW in 2025.

Maine's new framework lets large renewable projects sell directly to standard offer providers, and site them to relieve grid stress. Smart policy design, not just subsidy.

Illinois has cut emissions 32% since 2005. Its new climate plan maps a path to a 72% cut by 2050, with $21B a year in net benefits. Policy sets the target. Financing decides if it gets built.

Utilities have had the tools to get more from the existing grid for over a decade. Adoption lagged because of hesitancy and misaligned incentives. DOE is now putting $1.9B behind 31 projects to change that.

#GridModernization
The EPA is awarding $500M in grants to modernize Georgia's water infrastructure. Reliable water underpins public health, economic growth, and climate resilience, and it deserves priority when capital is allocated.

#WaterInfrastructure
In 2024, consumers put $332B into EVs, solar, and heat pumps - nearly 20% of global climate finance. Households are becoming a primary engine of the energy transition.

Columbia, SC's response to a 2015 flood: a $63.8M resilient water supply project and a 100-acre riverfront district. The best infrastructure investments design resilience and inclusive growth together from the start.

Ohio approved a 149MW solar-plus-storage project on a former coal mine with zero opposition. Reclaimed land is the easier path to siting, and Ohio has 70,000+ acres that qualify.

Federal climate policy has stalled, but cities are still moving. A UMD database tracks 1,400+ climate policies across 157 U.S. cities. Tracking local action is the first step toward directing capital where it's needed most.

12 MW by 2028. 21,000 existing home devices already in play. PG&E, Rewiring America, and Google's new SHARE program is testing whether distributed energy resources can earn their keep on the grid.

New UN research: $1 invested in integrated climate + clean air action returns ~$15 in economic benefits - more than tackling either alone. The real barrier is institutional: returns get split across sectors - capital doesn't follow.

Roanoke schools: 9.4MW of solar, 29 sites, $22M in projected savings over 35 years. Now adding battery storage so emergency shelters stay powered when the grid fails. This is what climate-smart public finance looks like.
