Green Financing

C-PACE (Property Assessed Clean Energy), also known as Commercial PACE (C-PACE) Financing, is a program adopted by an eligible municipality that allows commercial or non-profit property owners to pay back the cost of clean energy upgrades to their property over a term that can go as long as 20-30 years and is secured through a benefit assessment lien on the improved property. PACE is available in NYS through the Energy Improvement Corporation (EIC), a non-profit, local development corporation designated as C-PACE administrator across NYS, except for the City of New York, and through New York City Energy Efficiency Corporation (NYCEEC), the City of New York's designated administrator of the NYC Accelerator PACE Financing program. Both administrators are in charge of ensuring C-PACE Financing conforms with the enabling legislation and NYSERDA C-PACE guidelines.

NY Green Bank (NYGB) is a New York State-sponsored investment fund at NYSERDA dedicated to filling financing gaps in clean energy and sustainable infrastructure markets. Its investments contribute to greenhouse gas emissions reductions, energy efficiency, clean energy generation, and the mobilization of private capital in key market sectors.
