Clean Energy Communities: High Impact Actions

Each high-impact action is worth points that communities collect upon completion of the action. To receive points for completing high-impact actions, you must submit documentation that verifies all requirements have been met. The points you earn count toward unlocking access to point-based grant funding. Certain high-impact energy actions are eligible for additional Action Grants. You must complete four high impact actions to be designated as a Clean Energy Community.
