Decarbonization Opportunities and Resources for Massachusetts Developers

Massachusetts has a range of funding opportunities from both state and federal programs to assist with deep energy retrofits and high-performance new construction projects aimed at developers and owner-operators of affordable housing. These programs have varying goals, requirements, and deadlines that participants must be informed about and ready to meet.

Please join CHAPA in person on November 7, 2024, at Nixon Peabody’s office from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM for our second Climate Funding Forum: Decarbonization Opportunities and Resources for Massachusetts Developers.

This is a unique opportunity to learn how affordable housing developers and owner-operators can take full advantage of these significant funding opportunities. During the forum, a panel of industry experts will break down critical funding programs, including federal resources through the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund and Inflation Reduction Act, statewide incentive programs, and much more!

Registration and continental breakfast will open at 9:30 am.

Panel Discussion:

• MODERATOR: Amy Stitely, Undersecretary for Strategy & Climate, Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities (EOHLC)
