Jerrod KingeryFunding for projects related to clean energy, climate resiliency and energy efficiency is more abundant than ever, but finding those opportunities can be difficult.
To help solve that problem, the State of Washington has launched a new online hub to help connect people and organizations to those funds.
FundHubWA looks to connect everyone in Washington with federal and state grants, tax incentives and rebates that advance clean energy, clean air and clean technology projects.

The website, FundHubWA.gov, allows for easy access to a database of funding and is open to local governments, individuals, businesses, nonprofits, tribal governments and public agencies.
FundHubWA connects users to federal investments from the Inflation Reduction Act, CHIPS for America and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. It also offers access to Washington’s Climate Commitment Act (CCA), which funds climate-resiliency programs, clean transportation, consumer rebates and incentives, clean air programs and more.
The hub’s database covers a range of opportunities including electric vehicle rebates for lower income households, clean energy incentives for businesses and planning and infrastructure grants for cities, counties and tribal governments.
The Washington State Legislature approved funding for FundHubWA in 2024. It is administered by the Washington State Department of Commerce and supported with funding from the CCA.
The CCA supports the state’s climate action efforts by putting cap-and-invest dollars to work reducing climate pollution, creating jobs and improving public health.
