Allectrify Launches Fastpace For Swift C Pace Deals

Allectrify has launched FASTPACE.com, a new nationwide digital platform designed to simplify and speed up Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) financing. Announced in Chicago by CEO Colin Bishopp, this platform aims to bring together the entire C-PACE community—capital providers, property owners, developers, and lenders—under one digital roof, making it easier and faster to fund clean energy and sustainability projects.

C-PACE financing has become popular recently because it helps property owners pay for energy efficiency, renewable energy, and resilience upgrades. It lets developers and owners finance 100% of eligible project costs through a special tax assessment tied to the property. Although this financing method has great potential, the process has often been slow, complicated, and fragmented. FASTPACE.com was created to fix these issues.

With over 40 capital providers nationwide, FASTPACE lets users quickly compare financing options. Developers can instantly check if their property qualifies, get financing quotes, and secure lender approval—all free of charge. The platform offers terms up to 30 years with fixed or adjustable rates. By making the process faster and more transparent, FASTPACE can close deals in as little as 23 days for projects under $10 million.

At the launch, Bishopp highlighted the need to make C-PACE easier to use. “C-PACE financing has huge potential, but the process has been too slow and fragmented,” he said. “FASTPACE changes that by bringing speed and efficiency to every deal so more projects can move forward faster.”

FASTPACE is especially helpful for middle-market developers and owners who often struggle to get quick financing for energy upgrades. While big projects usually attract investors, smaller and mid-sized projects have had trouble securing funds fast enough. FASTPACE’s user-friendly digital platform helps level the playing field for all project sizes.

During its pilot, FASTPACE supported many projects, including solar installs, HVAC upgrades, adaptive reuse, and new buildings. Developers praised the platform’s speed and flexibility. Erin Tolbert, who used FASTPACE to secure $1.6 million for a hospitality project, said, “We closed our C-PACE financing in less than four weeks from term sheet signing. FASTPACE made the process seamless.”

Closing deals in under a month is a big improvement over traditional C-PACE financing, which can take months due to complex negotiations, local rules, and lender approvals. FASTPACE reduces these delays by digitizing the process and connecting everyone in one place.

C-PACE financing is growing as more governments and developers focus on sustainability and energy efficiency. It’s available in over 38 states and DC, funding upgrades like renewable energy systems, insulation, lighting, water-saving measures, and seismic retrofits. As demand grows, platforms like FASTPACE will be key to keeping financing fast and accessible.

The launch also fits with a wider move toward digital financial services. Just as mortgage and trade finance have embraced digital tools, energy and infrastructure financing is shifting to tech-driven platforms that emphasize speed and ease. FASTPACE leads this trend, offering a scalable solution to boost clean energy adoption in commercial real estate.

Looking ahead, Allectrify expects FASTPACE to attract a broad range of users, from those handling small retrofits to owners of large new builds. By providing competitive financing and cutting red tape, the platform aims to unlock more C-PACE projects nationwide.

Industry experts and sustainability advocates have welcomed FASTPACE, seeing digital tools as vital for driving climate-friendly investments. With real estate under pressure to reduce emissions and energy upgrades needing upfront capital, FASTPACE could be the link that turns ambition into action.

As the C-PACE market grows, streamlined, tech-based solutions like FASTPACE will become even more important. For now, FASTPACE is a major step forward in making clean energy financing faster, simpler, and more accessible than ever.
