The Maryland Energy Innovation Accelerator ("MEIA") was created in 2019 by the Maryland Clean Energy Center ("MCEC").  MCEC has an economic development mission to advance the adoption of clean energy, and energy efficiency products, services and technologies.


MEIA's mission is to create investible clean energy businesses. An investible business has the momentum and credibility to obtain third party investment to grow its operations and launch/grow its business.

What is an investible clean energy business?

Investible businesses satisfy the needs of capital providers in 3 essential areas:
