The Regulation CF offering permits investors of all sizes to support NEIF’s Certified B Corp™ mission of making energy efficiency more affordable for home and building owners through transparent and affordable financing.
ALLENTOWN, PA & DENVER, CO, September 15, 2025 — The National Energy Improvement Fund, LLC (NEIF), www.neifund.org, a Certified B Corporation efficiency lender, is pleased to announce the launch its newest offering of Class CF 2.0 Preferred Equity Investment Certificates to support its initiatives in providing fair, trusted, and affordable financing options for energy efficiency improvements to home and building owners.
This marks NEIF’s second Regulation CF offering through the Honeycomb Credit crowdfunding platform, https://www.honeycombcredit.com/, following a successful round in the spring of 2025. NEIF previously completed six Regulation CF offerings on the Raise Green platform. Honeycomb Credit acquired Raise Green earlier this year.
“Affordability is the key to home and building owners making essential upgrades to HVAC, insulation and renewables to improve energy efficiency. NEIF provides seamless financing support and technology to contractors and end users to fill the gaps and support utility and government rebate programs,” said Peter Krajsa, NEIF’s Co-Chair and Managing Member.
NEIF’s Class CF 2.0 Preferred Equity Investment Certificates permit investors to earn a fixed return while supporting NEIF’s energy efficiency initiatives.
“Honeycomb is thrilled to host NEIF’s latest round of Preferred Equity Investment Certificates, following the success of their first offering on our platform.

Together with NEIF, we’re building on that momentum and making climate-action investing easy and accessible,” said George Cook, Co-Founder and CEO of Honeycomb Credit.
“Investment in energy efficiency is the clearest path to building health, safety and comfort. NEIF’s work in integrated, streamlined financing dramatically improves the effectiveness of programs and contractor engagement,” said Matthew H. Brown, NEIF Co-Chair and Managing Member.
