About The Fund

The fund sets out to drive and support the more equitable distribution of clean energy economic opportunities across communities and generations - while also supporting government and industry stakeholder funders, in conjunction with US Offshore, the ability to surpass climate change local content requirements.

The Fund's programs for deployment include Offshore Wind (OSW) virtual reality (VR) training and immersion, in partnership with Kanda’s GWO-certifiable VR platform, and clean energy workforce awareness training, in partnership with the Equity + Environmental Justice Center, a social equity collective of public-private partners dedicated to advancing equity and environmental justice through innovative funding strategies, corporate social responsibility, and placemaking.
