ACORE Statement on House Passage of the Build Back Better Act

Statement From Gregory Wetstone, President and CEO of the American Council on Renewable Energy:

“House approval of the Build Back Better Act is a critical milestone in America’s efforts to take on the climate challenge. The legislation finally moves the country beyond years of on-again, off-again renewable tax credits and establishes a stable, predictable and long-term clean energy tax platform that will spur critically important investment in renewable power, energy storage and advanced grid technologies. This is America’s last best chance to take timely action to address the global climate crisis, and it is imperative we rapidly accelerate the renewable energy transition. ACORE remains committed to working with policymakers in both chambers to ensure the final legislation will successfully deliver on the Biden administration’s scientifically driven climate objectives.”
