Not sure where to start on financing your energy project? Energy efficiency and onsite energy production can reduce operating cost and improve the sustainability and resilience of buildings. Upfront costs; however, can be a barrier to successfully completing projects. Financing simply means the act or process of raising or providing funds for a project or activity. There are a variety of mechanisms or process to help finance energy projects. 

Use the U.S. Department of Energy Better Buildings Finance Navigator to explore financing options by sector or topic.
