In this webinar, Anne Levin-Nussbaum, a Member in our Energy & Sustainability and Tax Practices and her colleagues at ML Strategies discuss the energy tax provisions, review the Act’s new direct funding opportunities and offer insights regarding the implementation of such funding programs.

When President Biden’s signature Build Back Better Act faltered last year, many viewed the effort to be a failure. However, negotiations continued before Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) announced the package in late July. Nearly half of the $737 billion in revenue will be invested in clean energy and includes many direct funding opportunities in the form of grants, loans, and rebates focused on climate, energy, and energy efficiency. 

Our August 2022 Energy & Sustainability Washington Update covers the Inflation Reduction Act, a pending Senate bill calling for significant investments in energy security and addressing climate change, and Bipartisan Infrastructure Law opportunities issued by the US Department of Energy.
