NCEF is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with the mission of supporting a thriving, affordable, and accessible clean energy economy by providing financial and technical resources to Nevadans. NCEF works with communities, Tribes, affordable housing developers, schools, local businesses, contractors, governments, utilities, and others to accelerate clean energy growth, reduce energy costs, create jobs, and address climate change. NCEF supports a wide range of clean energy measures, including efficiency retrofits and electrification in homes and commercial buildings, zero-emissions vehicles, and residential and community solar and energy storage projects.
NCEF was created in 2017 by state legislation as the state&rsquo;s &ldquo;green bank,&rdquo; an institutional model successfully implemented in over a dozen other US states. Green banks are mission-driven institutions that use financing to accelerate the transition to clean energy, address climate change, and benefit communities.
NCEF is poised to grow significantly in the coming year due to NCEF&rsquo;s role in administering federal clean energy funds. NCEF already administers approximately $10 million in federal clean energy funds and was recently selected for another $156 million federal award.
At NCEF, we are focused on building a collaborative, equitable, respectful, impact-driven, and innovative culture that acknowledges the importance of work-life balance. We seek individuals who are critical thinkers, driven to take on big challenges, open to introspection, excited to connect with a diverse and inclusive set of stakeholders, and act with a high degree of integrity. Importantly, we seek individuals with a shared passion for clean energy, combating climate change, and having a positive impact on the lives of Nevadans.
NCEF is currently a hybrid organization that values strategic in-person collaboration. While employees can conduct the bulk of their work remotely, you should expect regular in-person meetings and working days. All NCEF&rsquo;s employees are located in Nevada.
