Project Highlights
Where the impact lands.
Three programs, three kinds of outcome: commercial buildings financed, a nonprofit building transformed, and a generation of energy leaders trained.
PA C-PACE
$11.6 Million in C-PACE Financing
In 2025, a 251,000-square-foot office building in Allegheny County closed $10 million in C-PACE financing for envelope, lighting and HVAC projected to cut electricity use by 307,009kWh. In Centre County, an extended-stay hotel closed $1.6 million, saving a projected $11,007 a year.
How PA C-PACE works
ENERGY MAKEOVER
A family shelter upgraded around efficiency.
Family Promise of Carbon County received an EnergySTAR heat pump system, replacing old oil heat and window units, new LED fixtures cutting 5,741 watts, efficiency doors and windows, a larger and more efficiency water heater, improved ventilation and 5 high-efficiency appliances.
About the Makeover Contest
ENERGYPATH
Inspiring the Next Generation of Energy Leaders
In 2025, Energypath brought together 20 student science fair projects, delivered 11 presentations to 723 participants and developed a hands-on Net Zero Building field trip for students. These efforts introduced students and professionals to energy efficiency, renewable energy and opportunities to shape a regenerative energy future.
Explore education programsOur impact goes beyond individual projects and programs. Every energy investment, educational experience and community partnership helps build the knowledge, infrastructure and opportunities needed for a regenerative energy future.
Financing Impact
Capital that keeps
giving back.
Since 1999, Regenerative Energy Initiative has helped finance energy projects with a combined value of more than $168 million.
Ten percent of the interest we earn on energy efficiency and renewable energy financing goes to the Nonprofit Weatherization Fund, which helps Pennsylvania nonprofits pay for weatherization and efficiency work that is hard to finance through traditional sources. Every borrower improves their own building and helps another organization improve theirs.
