Vermont S0174 mandates a study on Green Bank models to support climate mitigation investments in infrastructure, farming, and agriculture.

Vermont S0174 requires the State Treasurer to study Green Bank models from other jurisdictions to assess their potential benefits for Vermont. The study will evaluate how these models could facilitate and accelerate investments in climate mitigation infrastructure, farming, and agriculture. The Treasurer must consider various factors, including economic impact, coordination among state entities, and opportunities for public and private funding. The study will involve input from multiple state agencies and stakeholders, culminating in a report to the General Assembly by December 1, 2026.
