Overview
Provide resources to support the development of a strategic plan. The Coalition for Green Capital (CGC) is the primary resource for agencies looking to develop "Green Banks." CGC provides technical support to states and cities in the US, as well as increasingly abroad to create public Green Banks that promote low emission business models. The model was built around supporting rooftop solar in Connecticut and New York but has expended to a host of sectors in over 15 states and cities. They have also received requests for assistance from countries in Africa, Latin America and Asia. The strategic plan will inform where they will offer support and help to define their business plan.
