PCEF was produced by a ballot procedure passed in 2018 by Portland voters to carry out climate actions that center on equity and serve traditionally underrepresented populations.

Nonprofits can use directly or partner with other groups, including for-profit businesses. Applications will be accepted till November 30.
While Energy Trust is not directly included in PCEF and does get PCEF funding, it has worked with PCEF applicants and financed companies from the first round of moneying to much better serve clients of color and low-income customers.
For example, Energy Trust is supporting Community Energy Project, which was awarded PCEF funds in April, in providing home retrofits for Black house owners, and Constructing Hope, another PCEF recipient, in providing labor force training.
