The Sustainable Energy Fund becomes a founding member of The Clean Energy States Alliance
2/9/04 Allentown, PA - Tom Tuffey, of the Sustainable Energy Fund (SEF), announced today that SEF is a founding member of the Clean Energy States Alliance (CESA). CESA is a collaborative effort of the 17 clean energy funds from 12 states dedicated to expanding the use of clean energy.
CESA member organizations collectively manage $3.5 billion for clean energy related projects and technologies. CESA provides an opportunity for the various state funds to share information and program learning; it is also active in organizing collective initiatives that leverage resources in such areas as fuel cell purchasing, consumer education, wind power development, and green/smart building technologies. SEF Executive Director Tom Tuffey will serve on the CESA Executive Committee.
According to Tuffey, "CESA gives SEF an opportunity to access the programs and resources of clean energy funds from across the country to the benefit of our constituencies."
Headquartered in Allentown, Pa, SEF is a non-profit foundation dedicated to the development of sustainable energy in Central Eastern Pennsylvania primarily through loans and equity investments. Funding is available to those who comply with SEF objectives, which include the use of renewable energy resources, clean energy technology, energy efficiency projects or energy conservation. Some grants are also available to those who meet these terms.
