North Dakota's Clean Sustainable Energy Authority (CSEA) was established by the Legislature in 2021 under the control of the North Dakota Industrial Commission to enhance the production of clean sustainable energy, to make the state a world leader in the production of clean sustainable energy, and to diversify and grow the state's economy. The law provides that the Industrial Commission shall consult with the Clean Sustainable Energy Authority.

For the 2021-2023 biennium, the program received an appropriation of $25 million for grants and the authority to request a line of credit from the Bank of North Dakota for up to $250 million.
