Start here

Nevada’s green bank, built for exactly this.

Whatever the project — HVAC, lighting, solar, water, building envelope — NCEF is the first call. We stay with it from scoping to funding, and we know every program on this page.

Financing

Capital that fits the project

From C-PACE for major building improvements to flexible financing for smaller upgrades. Long terms, competitive rates, structured around the energy savings.

Technical assistance

No-cost project guidance

We help you scope measures, estimate savings, and stack every incentive you qualify for, before you spend a dollar. Free, and vendor-neutral.

Navigation

One call, whole map

Not sure where you fit? Tell us about the project and we’ll route you, including to any of the partner programs below when they’re the better first step.

Partner directory

Every program that can help, in one place.

Financing, technical assistance, and grants or direct financial assistance for Nevada commercial customers. Descriptions are drafts; each partner supplies its own two-to-three-line excerpt.

These programs stack.

The most affordable projects rarely use one source. Utility incentives and grants shrink the price tag first. NCEF financing covers the rest on terms the energy savings can carry. Bring us the project and we’ll sequence it with you.
