The Realizing America’s Clean Energy Opportunity report lays out key pillars necessary for the United States to accelerate a regional clean energy investment strategy — capitalizing on geographic strengths, creating new revenue and jobs across the country, and ensuring the United States remains economically competitive in the clean energy race.
The United States can compete in the creation, manufacturing, and deployment of clean energy technologies in a way that not only puts us on a path to decarbonization but also drives regional economic development. Regional investment in clean energy technologies, physical infrastructure, and supply chains can support regional economies, accelerate growth, and promote a dynamic, inclusive society.
