What are the projected uses of the 25% of auction revenues that are invested via the CERT Fund?
42% of those revenues would be used for direct GHG reduction efforts, most for projects such as energy efficiency and agricultural and forestry sequestration efforts, both in the U.S. and internationally. Other uses would include: transition assistance to those workers, communities and businesses most affected by the changeover to a clean energy economy; job-training programs for US workers for the new clean energy economy; clean energy research, development and deployment; energy efficiency programs; projects that benefit our oceans, fish and wildlife and our ecosystems; and programs to protect energy consumers.
