FAQs for Government

What is PACE?
Property Assessed Clean Energy

PACE is a public/private partnership designed to allow property owners to finance building improvements through voluntary special tax assessments placed on the property by a state economic development agency.

A primary goal of PACE is to lower the cost of entry for sustainability, resiliency and renewable energy improvements, thereby increasing economic activity, creating jobs, reducing environmental pollution and improving the built environment. PACE programs achieve this goal by harnessing private capital to finance 100% of the energy efficiency, renewable energy, water conservation, and resiliency improvements as well as related costs of qualified projects.
