The Chicago Climate Infrastructure Fund provides grants from $50,000 to $250,000 to nonprofit organizations and small businesses for climate-related capital projects in three priority areas: Renewable Energy, Electric Vehicles, and Green Infrastructure.

The City of Chicago Climate Infrastructure Fund was created to help achieve the City’s Climate Action Plan goal of reducing greenhouse emissions by 62% by 2040. The Fund — part of the Chicago Recovery Plan — supports neighborhood projects that mitigate the effects of climate change and accelerate the city’s equitable transition to the green economy.
