Inflation Reduction Act and What It Means for Nevada
The Inflation Reduction Act was signed into law by President Biden earlier this month. It provides historic investments in reducing climate pollution, accelerating the transition to clean energy, and advancing low- and zero-pollution transportation.
The new law will bring an estimated $2.7 billion of investment in large-scale clean power generation and storage to Nevada by 2030. According to an article published by Rhodium Group, an independent research firm, “Our preliminary estimate is that the IRA can cut US net greenhouse gas emissions down to 31% to 44% below 2005 levels in 2030—with a central estimate of 40% below 2005 levels—compared to 24% to 35% under current policy."
