Brownfields to brightfields Across the country, underused and contaminated sites are being transformed into brightfields—hubs for clean energy generation and community revitalization. Through our work with the National Brownfields Coalition, we’re exploring how redeveloping these sites for solar and renewable energy can do more than generate power—it can create jobs, strengthen local economies, and build a more equitable clean energy future. Smart Growth America partnered with the EPA to write a host of factsheets to aid with anti-displacement measures for redeveloping brownfield communities.
These fact sheets are designed to provide the information needed for community leaders and members to pursue or replicate these tools and strategies within their communities as they work to prevent displacement and gentrification, especially in the context of brownfields redevelopment.
