William Pizer, deputy assistant secretary for environment and energy at the U.S. Treasury Department, explains that the fund would contribute to a spectrum of projects from "building a solar park or creating a financial vehicle to support investments in energy efficiency to creating an insurance mechanism for disasters or crops," New York Times reports.
