Welcome

The U.S. Partnership for Renewable Energy Finance (US PREF) is in the business of providing educational resources on the topic of financing renewable energy companies and projects, and explaining how public policies are affecting, or could potentially affect, the availability of capital and the methods used by the private sector.  It is the express decision of the US PREF partnership that US PREF is not a lobbying organization or an advisory committee to government.  US PREF will not take positions for or against any current, pending, or proposed legislation, regulations, or programs. 

The partnership is made up of a group of highly experienced renewable energy financiers from leading financial institutions, technology companies, project development companies, law firms, and others working together with thought leaders from top non-governmental organizations.   The partnership will expand and may include utilities, institutional investors, and the like.

US PREF is a program of the American Council On Renewable Energy (ACORE), a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization headquartered in Washington, D.C. ACORE is dedicated to bringing renewable energy into the mainstream of the US economy and lifestyle through convening, research, education, and programs like US PREF. ACORE provides a common platform for the wide range of interests in the renewable energy community including renewable energy industries, associations, utilities, end users, professional service firms, financial institutions and government agencies. ACORE serves as a forum through which these parties work together on common interests. Partnership information is available at www.acore.org.
