Policy and investments in the US energy landscape

One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA)

Recent federal policy shifts are reshaping the landscape for energy and manufacturing investments. New tax incentives are being introduced to encourage domestic manufacturing, as well as $150 billion in defense-related spending allocated over the next four years and distributed across a ten-year horizon. Tax credits are expanding for key technologies like semiconductors, hydropower, battery energy storage, and nuclear energy—supporting innovation and grid resilience.

However, some clean energy incentives are being modified and phased out. As a result, developers and investors may need to reassess project timelines, sourcing strategies, and compliance with evolving tax guidance. Learn more.

Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA)

Under the recently passed Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), $1.2 trillion in funding will be available over the next five years making this one of the largest infrastructure packages in decades. This includes $550 billion of new federal funding from transit to vehicle electrification. The following stimulus-funded focus areas are included in the IIJA:

$105B Rail and public transit
$110B Roads and bridges
$73B Power infrastructure
$65B Broadband
$55B Water and wastewater
$46B Resiliency
$25B Airports
$17B Ports and waterways
$15B EV and EVCI
