In just its first few weeks in power, the Trump administration has wreaked havoc on the climate tech landscape. An executive order aimed at accelerating fossil fuel extraction and slamming the brakes on renewables and the freeze on all federal grants has already had a devastating effect. Even though the freeze was quickly rescinded, climate companies and organizations across the country are struggling to operate amidst the uncertainty of whether the government will rescind its contractual obligations and cut funding. At stake are hundreds of billions of dollars that have been crucial to developing America's green economy. Clearly, a good time to learn more about the importance of grant funding on climate tech, I sat down with Joel Armin–Hoiland, CEO of Climate Finance Solutions. Joel's company has helped climate businesses identify, apply for, and manage over $1.6 billion in non-dilutive grants. In this conversation, we spoke about how Joel's background led to a unique understanding of the importance of grants for climate companies, his company's track record and impact, how the funding landscape is changing, and much more. Even with federal funding potentially disappearing, there's still money on the table from other sources and a ton of complexity to navigate. This episode will be the first in a series with Joel as we try to help you all find your way to this new era. Here we go.

The Building a Stronger Economy 1.0 grant program (or BASE 1.0 grant program) awarded almost $100 million in federal funds to Kansas businesses for infrastructure development. The Department of Commerce awarded SOFTwarfare a BASE 1.0 grant in April 2022 to build a data center in Great Bend, Kansas. SOFTwarfare's grant agreement allowed them to use grant funds for construction and equipment costs and matching funds for permitting, inspection, and administrative costs. As of September 30, 2024, SOFTwarfare spent grant funds and matching contributions on the types of items allowed in the award agreement. Some of the expenditures differed from the specifics in the award agreement but Commerce staff accepted the deviations. However, SOFTwarfare didn't spend all the grant funds by July 6, 2024 as the contract required and Commerce officials did not proactively adjust the deadline.

Chris Holman welcomes back Tom Kelly, President & CEO, Automation Alley, Troy, MI. Q. Thanks for coming back to talk about Project DIAMOnD. We've had you on several times this year to talk about Project DIAMOnD but we understand that you got some very good news related to additional federal funding last week – can you tell us more about that? Yes -- Project DIAMOnD just received $1.9 million from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law that was allocated to us by the state of Michigan. The funding was announced last week by the Michigan Infrastructure Office. In addition, to that, the Michigan Economic Development Corp. announced that it would contribute $475,000 in new funding and Automation Alley will also contribute $125,000 in new funding. So, in total, that's an additional $2.5 million. Q. That's great news. Can you tell us how you are going to use this additional funding? Until now, we have been funded by Oakland, Macomb and Wayne Counties – but our goal is to expand our network of connected 3D printers to companies across the state. This investment represents an important first step in our vision of scaling Project DIAMOnD statewide to empower small- and medium-sized manufacturers across Michigan. This additional funding will support the expansion of Project DIAMOnD to 100 small and mid-sized manufacturers. We have also committed to using a minimum of 40% of the funding for companies in disadvantaged or underserved communities across the state. Participating companies will have access to the Project DIAMOnD Digital Transformation Program – which opened earlier this earlier this year – and expert assistance at the Project DIAMOnD Digital Transformation Center (DTC) in Auburn Hills. Q: Can you remind our listeners what that Digital Transformation Center is? Of course! It provides companies access to industrial 3D printing equipment, training and support. The new Digital Transformation Center (DTC) is supported by Geofabrica, an Auburn Hills, Michigan business that specializes in the development of custom 3D printing systems and processes for industrial applications. Through the DTC, Project DIAMOnD companies will have access to additive manufacturing courses, a team of experts, and access to additional 3D printers to test and make products. Q: Let's take a step back – can you remind our listeners what Project DIAMOnD is? Project DIAMOnD stands for distributed, independent, agile manufacturing on demand. It is an initiative powered by Automation Alley and funded by Oakland County, Michigan. Project DIAMOnD was developed in October 2020 to help Michigan manufacturers accelerate their digital transformation. It was initially funded with $10 million from Oakland County and $2 million from Macomb County. We used that funding to distribute 300 3D printers to small- and mid-size manufacturers at no cost, and to teach them how to use them. Q. If I recall correctly, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer expressed her support earlier this year at the Mackinac Policy Conference for the work that Automation Alley and Project DIAMOnD are doing – is that correct? Yes, that's correct. We held a press conference with the Governor at Mackinac back in May. At the time, she expressed support for our plan to expand statewide. Last weeks' announcement builds on the governor's vision to expand the “Infrastructure for Innovation,” shared technology and resources that entrepreneurs and businesses can leverage to grow in Michigan. We are very thankful to Governor for her support and for the state for its support. » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Watch MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/
