The Climate Action Office received the federal Climate Pollution Reduction Planning Grant in 2023. Part of the Inflation Reduction Act, this $3 million grant supports community engagement, communications, regional and municipal planning, and staffing State climate action work. The grant runs from 2023 through 2026.
In 2024, the Climate Action Office applied for the federal Climate Pollution Reduction Implementation Grant, seeking $99 million for 15 climate action priorities. Unfortunately, Vermont was not selected as a recipient and did not receive funding. The Climate Action Office is actively seeking alternate funding sources for Vermont's priority actions, which can be found in full below.
