Since passing in August 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) has been a game changer for clean energy and energy efficiency. According to the Department of Treasury “More than 1.2 million American families have claimed over $6 billion in credits for residential clean energy investments – such as solar electricity generation, solar water heating, and battery storage, among other technologies – averaging $5 thousand per family. 2.3 million families have claimed more than $2 billion in credits for energy efficient home improvements – such as heat pumps, efficient air conditioners, insulation, windows, and doors – averaging $880 per family.” But what we've seen so far is only part of what is on the horizon. We’ll be joined by Owen Vogel of the Clean Energy Credit Union (CECU).

These are exciting times. Every month brings new innovations in solar efficiency, wind, chemical battery storage, smart grids, microgrids, building efficiency, and building electrification—many of which were described in CRES chapter programs. Each of these innovations will play an important role in mitigating climate change risk. However, technological innovation alone is not sufficient to transition us from a fossil fuel-based economy to a renewable and sustainable economy. If these new energy sources are to mature and replace fossil fuels, we also need to create market conditions that will support them in their new role in our economy.
