Solar is one of the fastest-growing energy technologies in the world today, and for good reason. The fuel is “free,” and systems for converting and collecting solar energy get more efficient all the time. Installations are scalable to function in vast arrays, on individual rooftops, in community installations, and even in portable form for use in disaster recovery or other temporary applications. And because the sun delivers its energy across the entire globe, solar power does not depend on the complex supply chains – trucks, trains, and pipelines – that fossil fuels require.

With the enactment of the Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”) in August 2022, the United States signaled its commitment to reducing emissions in line with the Paris Climate Agreement. The IRA’s reach extends across industries and, in particular, across energy technologies. Its primary achievement in the energy and climate space is the unprecedented provision of public incentives for clean energy deployment and manufacturing capacity. These incentives provide the necessary long-term certainty required by wind industry stakeholders to make large capital investments in the U.S. market, which will in turn create jobs and economic opportunities for communities across the country.
