How recent legislation can advance sustainability and ESG agendas

This webcast will feature an in-depth discussion on how the Inflation Reduction Act, Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, and CHIPS and Science Act will enable companies to tackle climate change. 

Congress has passed three significant pieces of legislation within the last year that stand to tackle climate change and deliver a clean energy future for the United States.

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) includes spending and tax breaks to help companies tackle climate change and promote clean energy. While the Infrastructure Investment for Jobs Acts (IIJA)  centers on transportation and infrastructure spending, the funding is expansive in its reach, addressing energy and power infrastructure, access to broadband internet, water infrastructure, and more. The CHIPS and Science Act focuses on implementing programs to boost domestic manufacturing of semiconductors, and authorizes the largest publicly funded R&D program in US history with a focus on accelerating zero-carbon industries.

Join this webcast to hear from EY professionals about the recent pieces of legislation and market impacts.
