Commerce Secretary Keith Crisco has announced that the N.C. Green Business Fund is seeking proposals to help small businesses statewide develop and commercialize promising green and alternative energy technologies, products and services.  The competitive grants, worth up to $500,000 each, are funded by the federal Recovery Act through the N.C. Energy Office.

“Gov. Bev Perdue has made fostering the development of innovative commercial technologies, products and services a priority to make North Carolina a national leader in the green economy,” Crisco said. “This fund helps our state’s entrepreneurs create the cutting-edge technologies we need to fuel our state’s future and meet that priority.”
