Cleantech investors in the news:
Update on the New England cleantech cluster: Here’s a good interview with Massachusett’s Ian Bowles on the state’s efforts to promote decoupling and other important energy policy changes. It’s clear that there’s a lot of momentum in Massachusetts and around New England to promote the faster development of a strong clean energy economy—and as this article illustrates, cleantech can be an important driver of jobs growth. That’s why it’s very encouraging to sense the state moving quickly beyond basic rhetoric toward real action.
