Collective Clean Energy Fund (CCEF) is a nonprofit investment fund that utilizes and leverages mission-driven capital to fill finance gaps in various clean energy markets, including Colorado. CCEF operates on the “Green Bank” model and identifies unserved and underserved clean energy opportunities and works with a variety of stakeholders to structure finance solutions to bring those opportunities to fruition.
In 2018, former Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper announced the formation of CCEF following its incorporation as a 501(c)(3) Colorado nonprofit. We received initial funding from the State of Colorado in 2021 after the passage of Senate Bill 21-230 and its signing by Colorado Governor Jared Polis. CCEF then began deploying investment capital to clean energy projects and technologies across the region using a variety of financial tools and services.
CCEF is seeking intelligent, energetic, and high-integrity individuals with a shared passion for clean energy, addressing solutions to climate change, and making a positive impact in the lives of people across Colorado and beyond. At CCEF we value innovative thinking, a “no challenge is too big” attitude, treating everyone with dignity and respect, applying introspection in the pursuit of growth, establishing a balanced life, and making deep connections with a diverse and inclusive set of humans and stakeholders that challenge natural thought patterns. We sincerely want to change the world for the better and grow as individuals and professionals in the process. If this speaks to you, and you’re compelled by our vision and share these values, then we want to get to know you.
