The US Inflation Reduction Act and equitable clean energy investments: Insights from energy experts

September 12, 2024 | 10:00 am - 11:00 am EST

NOTE: This event has already taken place. See below for event description.

The US Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) is putting $369 billion toward:

  • Batteries for energy storage
  • Building electrification
  • Energy affordability
  • Energy efficiency
  • Environmental justice
  • Solar programs
  • Transportation electrification

From rebates and tax credits supporting existing programs to funds supporting the communities most adversely affected by climate change, there are many ways utilities and their customers can benefit. But with so many new opportunities, it’s critical for utilities to align their efforts and understand what roles they play during this historic deployment.

Join a conversation with experts as they highlight:

  • How utilities can leverage this incoming and ongoing federal funding opportunity
  • How new IRA funding might affect utility operations and offerings, especially for income-qualified customers and vulnerable communities
