Environmental Protection Agency August 27, 2024 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announces a public webinar of the Environmental Financial Advisory Board (EFAB). The purpose of the webinar will be to explore strategies for leveraging Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) resources to attract private capital investment in zero emissions transportation projects, with particular focus on low-income and disadvantaged communities (LIDACs). Zero emissions transportation refers to modes of transport that do not produce any direct emissions of pollutants or greenhouse gases during operation. This includes a variety of technologies and approaches aimed at reducing the environmental impact of transportation. During the webinar, invited financial experts will discuss innovative financing models, risk mitigation strategies, and opportunities for scaling up investments in this sector. This webinar is the second in a three-part series that explores strategies for leveraging GGRF resources to attract private capital into GGRF priority sectors. The first webinar, held on July 30, 2024, addressed Net Zero Buildings projects. Written public comments may be provided in advance. No oral public comments will be accepted during the webinar. Please see the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further details.
