3/ Built to serve the public good, public renewables lower energy bills, create good union jobs, and invest in communities β empowering public developers to equitably decarbonize society. And thereβs precedent: public finance agencies have built water + sewage infrastructure for over a century.

2/ Public renewables can be built by green banks & development finance agencies who have access to low-cost capital. Free from profit-seeking constraints, public developers can pool projects, cut costs, and plan comprehensively for rapid decarbonization.
