DOE Debt to Catalyze Scale Up

As decarbonization projects transition from early-stage innovation to large-scale deployment, access to capital is critical. In this session, equity investors and representatives from the Department of Energy’s (DOE) debt programs will share their perspectives on how DOE debt can serve as a powerful tool to catalyze the scaling of decarbonization projects and companies. With insights into how DOE’s lending authority complements private equity, this discussion will explore the role of DOE debt in overcoming financial barriers, reducing project risk, and accelerating the deployment of commercially viable technologies.

Join this session to explore

• How can DOE debt align with private equity to fuel the growth of decarbonization companies?
• What are case studies of successful DOE-backed projects that have leveraged both equity and debt to achieve scale?
• What are strategies for navigating the intersection of public and private capital to accelerate the clean energy transition?
