Description (excerpt):

Since the landmark Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) became law in August 2022, companies are racing forward with massive investments to build our clean energy future. New manufacturing in wind, solar, batteries, and electric vehicles—along with storage projects across the country—mean new, good-paying jobs for hard working Americans. In the six months since the landmark climate and clean energy investments became law, clean energy companies have announced more than 100,000 new clean energy jobs for electricians, mechanics, construction workers, technicians, support staff, and many others.

As the largest U.S. investment in clean energy and climate in history, this national clean energy plan will continue to reshape and recharge our economy for many decades to come. The Made in America clean energy boom is just getting started. This report analyzes public announcements from the private sector since the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act to demonstrate the breadth and scale of the growing clean energy economy being built all across the country.
