Designed to Last: Building the Infrastructure Behind Clean Energy Capital

A fundamental shift is underway in climate finance. Mobilizing the capital needed to meet growing demand for climate and clean energy solutions now requires blended financing strategies, greater private investment, stronger national and local partnerships, and deeper market coordination to build technical capacity and scale effective solutions. ​Join Justice Climate Fund Chief Executive Officer Amir Kirkwood, Hive Fund for Climate and Gender Justice Chief Executive Officer Melanie Allen, U.S. Green Bank 50 Executive Director Dan Adler, and African American Alliance of CDFI CEOs President & Chief Executive Officer Amber Banks for a conversation on how catalytic capital, strategic partnerships, and market-driven financing are expanding access to investment in under-resourced communities across the country. ​Bringing together funders, national partners, community lenders, and local leaders, the discussion will explore how credit enhancements, syndication, and other financing strategies are unlocking private capital, strengthening community lending capacity, and accelerating locally driven climate and clean energy projects in communities where they are needed most.
