Webinar: Building a Clean Energy Future in Philadelphia

Renewable energy and energy efficiency projects can seem inaccessible to Philadelphia's home and business owners due to challenging scopes and high costs. The Philadelphia Green Capital Corp. (PGCC) is making this process more cost-effective and helping to improve living conditions and increase building resilience directly.

Join the Sustainable Business Network of Greater Philadelphia (SBN), the Philadelphia Green Capital Corp (PGCC), the Philadelphia Energy Authority, and the Building Industry Association of Philadelphia (BIA) on Thursday, March 17 at 12 pm for a webinar to discuss how PGCC is providing low-cost financing options for energy efficiency and renewable energy projects in the Philadelphia region. Guests will gain a better understanding of the tools and resources the commercial sector can utilize to incorporate clean energy and sustainability into their new constructions and retrofits.
