The Equitable Building Decarbonization Program funds two efforts: the direct install program and an incentives program. Both programs incentivize installation of all-electric appliances, energy efficiency and weatherization measures, and related building upgrades.
Grants to food processors to implement projects that reduce GHG emissions and onsite energy consumption.
The Inclusive, Diverse, Equitable, Accessible, and Local (IDEAL) Zero-Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Workforce Pilot funds projects that support ZEVs, ZEV infrastructure, and ZEV-related commercial technologies in California, with focus on priority populations.
Provides incentives for industrial projects that provide benefits to the electrical grid and reduce GHG emissions and local air pollution. Eligible projects include those that increase energy efficiency, enhance electrical grid reliability, electrify fossil fuel processes, incorporate energy storage or renewable resources, and deploy novel decarbonization technologies and strategies.
The California Energy Commission will provide incentives to support low-carbon fuel production projects in California. The program will support new and expanded renewable ultra-low carbon transportation fuel production at commercial scale, helping the State’s fuel industry work towards a low-carbon future.
Adoption of on-site renewable energy technologies (such as wind and solar) at agricultural operations.
The Factory-Built Housing (FBH) Pre-Development Program will support applicants to the U.S. Department of Energy's Title 17 Clean Energy Financing Program, which provides financing for the construction, expansion, and/or rehabilitation of manufacturing facilities for housing across California.
TECH Clean California is a statewide initiative to accelerate the adoption of clean space and water heating technology across California homes in order to help California meet its goal of being carbon-neutral by 2045 and install 6 million heat pumps by 2030. TECH offers incentives, pilot activities, technical assistance, and training to address barriers associated with clean space and water heating technologies across California homes.
Community Composting for Green Spaces Grant increases the number of community groups operating small-scale composting programs in green spaces within disadvantaged and low-income communities, and to increase the capacity of those composting programs. Green spaces include, but are not limited to, community gardens, urban farms, and other public spaces where small-scale composting is appropriate.
Funds projects to prevent food waste from being generated and/or becoming landfill waste, promotes distribution of rescued food to people, and requires food waste residuals to be composted or digested when available.
Provides grants for the construction, renovation, or expansion of facilities to preprocess, digest, or compost organics into compost, soil amendments, biofuels, or bioenergy.
Loans to fund construction, renovation, or expansion of facilities for preprocessing, digesting, or composting organics, or the preprocessing or manufacturing of value-added finished products using recycled fiber, plastic, or glass.
The construction, renovation, or expansion of facilities to process or manufacture value-added products from California-derived, newly diverted fiber, plastic, or glass waste.
The California Workforce Development Board will develop industry-based, worker-focused training partnerships that connect California’s “high road” employers with existing established workforce development programs to build skills and capacity for training and employment within various employment sectors.
California’s high-speed rail system will connect the mega-regions of the State. The Phase 1 system will run from San Francisco to the Los Angeles basin in under three hours at speeds capable of over 200 miles per hour. The system will eventually extend to Sacramento and San Diego, totaling 800 miles with up to 24 stations (Phase 2).
Funding for affordable housing, active transportation, transit, and solar photovoltaic systems.
Community Assistance for Climate Equity (CACE) is a suite of capacity building programs that aim to equip underinvested communities at the frontlines of the climate crisis with the tools to access funding for climate adaptation, mitigation, and resilience.
Funding to deploy scalable clean transportation and mobility strategies for reducing GHG emissions from schools in disadvantaged communities. Strategies may include electric vehicles and electric vehicle supply equipment in schools (K – 12), car sharing for staff at schools, and outreach to students, parents and the community.
This program provides a variety of clean mobility projects (including car share, bike share, vanpool, and ridesourcing) in disadvantaged communities using advanced clean vehicles (zero-emission or plug-in hybrid electric vehicles) and associated infrastructure.
Vouchers toward the purchase of zero-emission equipment used in off-road freight transport (such as forklifts, transport refrigeration units, gantry cranes, and terminal trucks).
Vouchers for the purchase of zero-emission, trucks and buses, including funding for charging or fueling infrastructure.
Rebates for the purchase or lease of new, eligible light-duty vehicles, including electric, fuel-cell, and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles.
Air Grants fund projects that provide support for California community-based organizations and California tribes. Grants help awardees participate in the AB 617 process, and to build capacity to become active partners with government to identify, evaluate, and ultimately reduce air pollution and exposure to harmful emissions in their communities.
Incentive grants to help owners of older high-polluting vehicles and equipment replace them with newer models that have much lower emissions—or zero emissions.
Funding Agricultural Replacement Measures for Emission Reductions funds agricultural harvesting equipment, heavy-duty trucks, agricultural pump engines, tractors, and other equipment used in agricultural operations.
Funding to conduct mobile air monitoring in communities across the state.
Zero- and Near Zero-Emission Freight Facilities provide funding for pre-commercial demonstrations of advanced vehicles, engines, equipment, and transportation systems.
This program provides financial incentives to implement non-digester practices to reduce or avoid methane emissions, including solid separation, conversion from flush to scrape manure collection and enhanced pasture-based management practices.
The development of dairy digesters that reduce methane emissions from manure and the research and demonstration projects that study manure management practices which reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Technical assistance and incentives for the installation of energy-efficiency measures and solar photovoltaics (PV) in low-income multifamily dwellings in disadvantaged and other communities.
