Speakers will explore the impact of the green bank model globally at the city, state, and national levels and how green banks help advance both climate and equity goals. The event will highlight the potential role and impact of a U.S. national green bank under the Inflation Reduction Act’s Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund. It will also showcase how existing green banks at the city and state levels successfully and equitably achieve climate and sustainable development targets by financing low-carbon, climate-resilient projects and spurring private financing markets that create new jobs.
