Full Report

Passing the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) has kicked America’s clean energy sector into high gear, transforming Colorado into a solar and wind manufacturing hub. Across the state, climate and clean energy investments have already spurred $1.77 billion in investment and created or moved forward 3,517 good-paying clean energy jobs. Since the IRA’s passage, eight new clean energy projects have been announced or moved forward in Colorado. Projects span four sectors, including batteries, semiconductors, solar, and wind. The IRA will continue to accelerate the clean energy jobs boom while lowering energy costs for families, investing in disadvantaged communities, and reducing climate pollution across the state.
