Database
November 19, 2024, Update: Wilson Sonsini's Clean Energy and Climate Solutions Federal Funding Database and its related webpage updates related to the U.S. Department of Energy, U.S. Department of Transportation, and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency grants and loans will sunset on December 31, 2024. Information related to tax credits and U.S. Treasury rules and regulations will continue to be available and client alerts and webpage updates will continue during this dynamic time. For more information on grants and loans funding opportunities, please contact a member of the Energy and Climate Solutions team. To sign up for tax credit client alerts, please sign up here.
Wilson Sonsini's Energy and Climate Solutions group is pleased to share our Clean Energy and Climate Solutions Federal Funding Database, a digital resource listing current and prospective openings for federal funding applications issued across several government agencies, including (but not limited to) the U.S. Department of Energy, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and the U.S. Department of Transportation.
The database is seeded with opportunities funded by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law of 2021 (“BIL”), the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”), and other previously authorized statutes and appropriations bills. The database summarizes billions of dollars’ worth of grant, loan, and other non-dilutive awards from the federal government, as well as specific deadlines, opportunities to engage, eligibility requirements, and links to application information. These non-dilutive federal funding opportunities support a redundant and therefore stable capital stack, bring a host of reputational benefits, and allow enterprises to leverage federal systems and expertise.
For a general guide to understanding how this federal funding works at a high level, particularly for those with less background on these topics, please see our white paper, Federal Funding Opportunities for Scaling Climate Solutions.
