OLYMPIA, Wash.-A new portal aims to make it easier for people and organizations to apply for climate and clean energy funding.

FundHub.WA.gov is a database for local governments, individuals, businesses, nonprofits, tribal governments and public agencies to connect with federal and state grants, tax incentives and rebates that advance clean air, energy and technology, according to a release from Gov. Inslee’s Office.

“With the launch of FundHubWA, there has never been a better time to contribute to a cleaner, healthier and more prosperous Washington,” said Washington State Department of Commerce Director Mike Fong.

The Washington State Legislature approved FundHub in 2024 and the database tracks funding opportunities from the Inflation Reduction Act, CHIPS for America, the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Washington’s Climate Commitment Act, according to the Governor’s Office.

“We don’t want anyone to miss out on an opportunity simply because they don’t know about it,” said Gov. Inslee. “This portal offers everyone an easy way to browse for funding that could help them improve their home, business or community.”

FundHubWA covers a broad range of opportunities, including electric vehicle rebates, clean energy incentives for businesses, and planning and infrastructure grants for cities, counties and tribal governments.
