Growth Opps Partners with Coalition for Green Capital to Catalyze America's Transition to Clean Energy

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Growth Opportunity Partners, Inc. (Growth Opps) is proud to announce its partnership with the Coalition for Green Capital (CGC), to strengthen the National Green Bank’s ability to catalyze America’s transition to a clean energy platform. CGC also announced a partnership with the Clean Energy Fund of Texas and the Community Development Venture Capital Alliance (CDVCA). This inaugural partnership will build upon CGC’s nationwide coalition of over 30 green banks and other lenders focused on addressing the climate crisis by financing clean energy projects in local communities.

Growth Opps partners with CGC for National Green Bank, $2B in public-private investment for clean energy projects.

“As the first African American led Green Bank established in the United States, we are thrilled to partner with CGC, to support the launch of a National Green Bank,” said Michael Jeans, president & CEO of Growth Opportunity Partners, Inc. “Growth Opps has a strong record collaborating with banks, governments, municipalities, philanthropy, and the private sector to fill the gaps where capital markets have failed underserved/disadvantaged persons and communities. Having launched the GO Green Energy Fund in collaboration with CGC, we are confident in the vision and opportunities to come with the creation of a National Green Bank and the backing of our robust coalition.”

“With our new partners, we anticipate an initial pipeline of projects with a total valuation of more than $2B in public-private dollars over the next several years,” said Eli Hopson, executive director and COO of CGC. “Growth Opps, the Clean Energy Fund of Texas, and the CDVCA are connected to local communities and financial institutions. These local ties will help the national green bank move quickly to reach every community, especially underserved communities, as we catalyze America’s transition to the clean power platform in an equitable way, create good jobs, and redress environmental injustice.”
