CLEAN ENERGY ENTREPRENEUR CLUSTER
The Clean Energy Entrepreneur Cluster is a collaborative initiative led by E8 Angels, CleanTech Alliance, Washington Clean Energy Testbeds, and Latino Founders focused on accelerating early-stage clean energy innovation. The cluster supports entrepreneurs bringing promising climate technologies to market, with a special emphasis on reducing greenhouse gas emissions in overburdened communities. It provides targeted training, mentorship, and investor access to help startups and community-based entrepreneurs develop business strategies, technical solutions, and deployment plans. With broad relevance across sectors—from green hydrogen to maritime and infrastructure decarbonization—the cluster plays a foundational role in advancing the clean energy economy across Washington and beyond.
The Innovation Cluster Accelerator Program is supported with funding from Washington’s Climate Commitment Act. The CCA supports Washington’s climate action efforts by putting cap-and-invest dollars to work reducing climate pollution, creating jobs, and improving public health.
