Using community benefits to promote local economic development

Your community is not at the whim of renewable energy developers. Companies who want to build in your area are often obligated to partner with you to provide economic and community development benefits. Join this webinar to learn more about these Community Benefits programs and how you can make sure renewable energy projects support your community beyond the energy they produce! During this webinar experts will discuss the three types of Community Benefits programs: Community Benefit Agreements, Plans, and Ordinances and provide examples of the types of benefits your community can receive. Community Benefit Agreements are a legal contract between a community coalition and a developer which outline the benefits the developer will provide to the broader community in exchange for support of the project. Community Benefit Plans are created by companies as part of Department of Energy and other federal funding applications. Communities can also create ordinances that require Community Benefit Agreements for developments that meet certain criteria.
