Please note: In order to help RENU scale and increase its ease-of-use, the program has officially migrated from the Colorado Energy Office (CEO) to the state’s new green bank, the Colorado Clean Energy Fund (CCEF). This migration became effective June 1st, and now all program management responsibilities are handled by CCEF. This migration will not change the core aspects of RENU, including lending partners, interest rates, processes, etc.
All contractors looking to become authorized in RENU should direct their communication to CCEF at the new program email address: renu@cocleanenergyfund.com. CCEF will then be available to guide contractors through the authorization process with CCEF, which will essentially remain the same as with the CEO.
