Monday briefing: what progress has been made since the US Inflation Reduction Act?

In this week’s briefing, Innovation Forum’s Ian Welsh and Bea Stevenson reflect on a year of the US Inflation Reduction Act, which has directed almost $400bn in federal funding in the US to reduce carbon emissions and reach climate targets. They discuss the success in greater clean energy provision, solar power supply and EV sales, but also discuss where there has been less progress, in areas such as hydrogen and carbon capture technology.

Plus, Innovation Forum’s Emily Heslop reveals what to expect at the future of climate action conference in Washington DC from 8th-9th November. Register here for a $300 early-bird discount – the offer expires this Friday, 18th August.
