Clean energy advocates say the Inflation Reduction Act is a major economic success nationwide, particularly in Republican districts, as the law hits its two-year anniversary and the GOP looks to dismantle it.
More than 330 clean energy and vehicle projects — from wind and solar farms to hydrogen facilities and battery plants — have been announced since the law was passed, and could deliver $126 billion in private sector investment and over 109,000 jobs, according to a new report from the advocacy group E2.
On a call with reporters Wednesday, E2 Executive Director Bob Keefe called the IRA the “biggest economic revolution this country has seen in generations.”
“It’s because we finally, finally, finally, in this country decided to do something about climate change and clean energy when we passed the IRA,” Keefe said.
