Please join us for a new webinar series that addresses the challenges of obtaining affordable capital for energy use improvements in households, businesses and institutions.

Our first webinar in this series will define key terms in energy efficiency finance. We will discuss the rationales behind financing approaches such as Energy Performance Contracts (EPC), Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) and On Bill Repayment (OBR). We will also highlight the strengths and weaknesses of various sources of capital and the role of credit enhancement and financial products.
