The Nevada Clean Energy Fund (NCEF) is a non-profit organization created in 2017 by state legislation. NCEF’s mandate is to increase financing for clean energy projects in Nevada in a way that improves quality of life for Nevadans, reduces energy costs, creates jobs, and meaningfully addresses climate change. Clean energy projects can include renewable energy, energy efficiency, transportation electrification, and vehicle alternative fuels. NCEF was incubated over the course of four years with the support of the Coalition for Green Capital (CGC) and the NCEF Board of Directors, consisting of state government officials and nominees representing labor and local community interests from across the state. NCEF formally launched in early 2022.
