About Climate United
The Inflation Reduction Act authorized the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to implement the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) —a historic $27B program that uses financing to reduce emissions while creating health and economic benefits for underserved, rural, and low-income communities. The $14B National Clean Investment Fund (NCIF) program is part of the GGRF and was created to deliver affordable, accessible financing to clean technology projects. Climate United was awarded $6.97B. The two other programs that are a part of the GGRF are the $6 billion Clean Communities Investment Accelerator and the $7 billion Solar for All program.
