The Connecticut Green Bank is the nation’s first green bank. It works with private-sector investors to create low-cost and long-term financing for sustainable projects. More specifically, it looks to support clean energy infrastructure improvements, accelerate the commercialization of clean energy sources, and stimulate demand for such sources using financing mechanisms such as warehousing, loan loss reserves, guarantees, and securitization. The Connecticut Green Bank also houses the state’s Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) program.
