News focused exclusively on financing for
energy efficiency and renewable energy
Your inbox works just fine - we're just sharing a newsletter each week in February as we eye the March 12 deadline for our Financing and Deploying Clean Energy certificate program. Participants in that program dish out policy memos that land on the proverbial table. We want to share a healthy portion with you. 
To learn more about the FDCE program, apply here. We're accepting applications until March 12.

Everybody Loves Refunds: An Economist Argues For a Carbon Dividend  as a Boost to the IRA
Mara MacDonell  
The bulk of the Inflation Reduction Act, the United States' landmark climate legislation, counts on householders and business owners to seek available tax credits for investment in clean energy. An economist who has long argued for a slightly different strategy says that direct payments to consumers will drive adoption faster.   
Emission Mission: Bridging Governments With Policy to Close the Clean Energy Gap 
FDCE participants
The Financing and Deploying Clean Energy certificate program sets up participants to broach complex questions. Learners write policy memos on tricky topics, which we're sampling all month. One memo argues for partnership across government levels to boost offshore wind output. Another urges higher building performance through federal oversight. Apply by March 12. 

Notes From the Field
