Issue Overview:
America’s engineering companies support modern sustainable energy systems, from traditional oil and gas to nuclear power and cutting-edge renewable sources. ACEC supports a national energy policy that embraces all of America’s energy resources to meet the demands of a growing economy while also facilitating the transition to a more reliable, resilient, affordable, and sustainable system to meet the challenges of climate change.
ACEC’s Energy Agenda Includes:
- Funding and incentivizing investment in clean energy technology research, development, demonstration, and deployment.
- Supporting technology transition incentives for private, clean energy market investment through tax credits, federal loans and loan guarantees, and private activity bonds.
- Supporting mitigation of future risk with data gathering, modeling, codes and standards development, resilience prioritization, systems planning, and accelerated environmental and facility permitting.
- Execution of programs authorized under the IIJA and IRA.
