The IRA 2 Year Anniversary: By the Numbers
August’s clean tech news was dominated by the two year anniversary of the Inflation Reduction Act. We’re celebrating with a special IRA Deep Dive issue with tons of fun charts and data you never knew you needed about the IRA.
The Treasury Department marked the occasion by releasing a trove of info on the law’s uptake and a clearing house of IRA guidance and regulations on the law’s 26 new or modified clean energy tax credits. I started DCCleanTech because I wanted all the USG clean tech funding and policy information in one place, so I’m a huge fan of this Treasury data dump and it immediately earned a spot on the bookmark bar.
