Tuesday, May 14, 2024

3:40 PM – 4:40 PM CST

Location: Room 320, Level 3

The passage of the Inflation Reduction Act has unlocked increased potential for the development of various clean energy projects. What is the community impact of the IRA within the state? How exactly are these tax credits being used in Texas? What projects are now viable that were not before? In this session, panelists will discuss how their companies are reacting to the new federal tax incentives, outline provisions in the IRA are most applicable to their local communities, and obstacles that still need to be addressed to maximize the law’s impact.
