Webinar: Introducing New Guidance for the Title 17 Clean Energy Financing Program

The new Title 17 Clean Energy Financing Program guidance updates project eligibility, application requirements, and evaluation criteria, consolidating several existing solicitations into one easy-to-read document.
Notably, the updated guidance also incorporates new authorities established by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) in 2021 and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) in 2022, including new Energy Infrastructure Reinvestment (EIR, Section 1706) authority and a new category of financing under the existing section 1703 program for projects supported by a State Energy Financing Institution (SEFI).
Under the Title 17 Clean Energy Financing Program, LPO can finance projects in the United States that support clean energy deployment and energy infrastructure reinvestment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. Title 17 was created by the Energy Policy Act of 2005 and has since been amended, most recently by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act in 2021 and the Inflation Reduction Act in 2022. The legislation expanded the scope of Title 17 to include certain state-supported projects and projects that reinvest in legacy energy infrastructure and it leverages additional loan authority and funding available for projects involving innovative energy technologies.
