Opportunities to Accelerate Grid Interactive Resources with BIL and IRA Funding

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) provide a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to implement efficiency and electrification projects on a large scale. As these programs are designed, states should consider ways to include grid interactive resources alongside them to ensure the grid continues to provide reliable and affordable energy. NEEP outlines available funding and provides recommendations to help states both understand and utilize the funding to increase adoption of electrification benefits and grow existing programs.
