Appalachian Community Capital and the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund

It's official!! We celebrate Appalachian Community Capital's $500 million award from the EPA to stand up the Green Bank for Rural America -- an ambitious initiative aimed at empowering rural communities to thrive in the new energy economy. With this award, Appalachian Community Capital is starting the Green Bank for Rural America to provide public and private capital that enables rural areas to gain the most benefit from the new energy economy. Rural communities in Appalachia and across the country have always been the heart of energy production in America, powering the growth of our nation.
