The Workshop creates dedicated space for Program Administrators to compare notes, surface common challenges, identify practical tools, and strengthen the administrator voice within the C-PACE market.

Industry connection

The Annual Conference expands the conversation to public-sector partners, capital providers, developers, engineers, technical experts, and industry leaders involved in project delivery and market growth.
