Take Climate Action
- Last Updated on Monday September 18th, 2023
Businesses: Buildings are the largest contributor of GHG emissions in the St. Louis bi-state region, making up 64% of all emissions in 2015. Make a plan to take advantage of utility incentives in Missouri and Illinois and federal incentives to make your buildings more efficient and save money with renewable energy.
Individuals: Take advantage of a tax credit to get a discounted home energy audit (or get one for free, for income-qualified residents in Missouri and Illinois). Make a plan to use available incentives to make your home more efficient and save money with renewable energy. Check out incentives from utilities in Missouri and Illinois, available tax credits and rebates, and income-qualified home weatherization assistance in Missouri and Illinois.
Local Governments: For the first time, governments, schools, and nonprofits can take advantage of clean energy tax credits. Energy grants and loans are also available from MO Department of Natural Resources. You can also tell the planning team what projects you would like to implement, to be included in the St. Louis Regional Climate Action Plan. You can reach the team here.
Nonprofits: Nonprofits can now take advantage of clean energy tax credits. You can also share your input on projects in the St. Louis Regional Climate Action Plan. While eligible applicants for implementation grants will likely be states, municipalities, Territories, Tribes, and groups of eligible entities, you can collaborate on their projects or apply for other funding sources. You can reach the planning team here.
