Public News Service: "How Texas Could Benefit from the Inflation Reduction Act"
A story about RFF Fellow Daniel Raimi and Research Analyst Sophie Pesek's work on energy communities is shared across several Texas radio stations.
The country's transition to a net-zero energy system as part of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) aims to speed the clean-energy transition through tax credits and cash rebates for solar panels, electric vehicles, energy efficient appliances, etc. But there's some concern it won't precisely target areas of the country, including those in Texas, most reliant on fossil fuels for jobs, economic activity, and government revenue. Comments from Daniel Raimi, fellow, and Sophie Pesek, research analyst, Resources for the Future.
