The Biden administration announced Monday that it is sending billions of dollars across the country to advance climate change-related projects.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said Monday that it is sending a combined $4.3 billion to help fund 25 applicants build “community-driven” climate projects across 30 states. The projects include electric vehicle (EV) charging station construction, funds to help local governments expedite green energy siting and programs to enhance heat pump adoption.

“President Biden’s Climate Pollution Reduction Grants put local governments in the driver’s seat to develop climate solutions that work for their communities,” John Podesta, the senior advisor to the president for International Climate Policy, said of the funding. “These grants will help state and local governments improve the air quality and health of their communities, while accelerating America’s progress toward our climate goals.”
