U.S. climate, clean energy, and infrastructure laws

The U.S. Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA)—also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL)—and the Inflation Reduction Act include unprecedented funding for climate change, clean energy, and infrastructure systems.

This funding has the potential to help achieve ambitious goals established by federal agencies, state and local governments, utilities, private-sector companies, and other stakeholders.

Our 2,000 climate, energy, and environment experts offer their insights and analysis to help stakeholders maximize the impact of this new funding.
