The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) that was signed into law last August was the most sweeping clean energy and climate legislation in history. The climate care provisions in the IRA are historic and are imperative in addressing the urgent moral issue of climate justice.
Included in the IRA, are clean energy tax credits for wind and solar, EVs, efficiency upgrades, heat pumps, and much more for nonprofits, which includes houses of worship.
As people of faith and conscience, reducing the climate impact of our houses of worship is an opportunity to help bring about a just transition to a clean energy economy based on the values we all share: caring for one another and for our common home.
Federal agencies are still in the process of developing the guidance and programs for the Inflation Reduction Act. But join Interfaith Power & Light and the Environmental and Energy Study Insitute for this briefing on what benefits were included in the IRA for nonprofits and houses of worship, and learn when we can expect to see them become available.
