Project Accelerator
Hands-on support to accelerate your sustainable water program Our ProjectsContact UsProject Accelerator is WaterNow’s vehicle to jumpstart sustainable water projects.
We provide high-value capacity and expertise to public water, wastewater, and stormwater agencies, to make meaningful progress toward more affordable, community-oriented solutions. This generates immediate wins for participating projects, and builds a library of replicable, scalable solutions for more widespread adoption.
Conservation, efficiency, water reuse, and green stormwater infrastructure programs are smart and cost-effective. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, efforts to ensure equity and affordability in water management are more vital than ever. We are here to help you move past roadblocks on the path to implementation.
Twice a year, WaterNow Alliance staff select several projects to receive professional hands-on support, and technical and program assistance. Our expertise ranges from deep water policy guidance to support and advice on communications strategies. Selected Project Accelerators receive up to 250 hours of professional support in 6 months (valued at $25,000 each).
