Unprecedented climate legislation is opening a vast array of opportunities for those in the cleantech space. The $369 billion dollars in federal funding is proving to be a gamechanger by delivering critical investments to climate tech developers and manufacturers. Companies are taking advantage of tax incentives and grants for solar, wind, and other renewable energy projects. Developments are moving even faster in e-mobility, where Americans now can now tap into a $7,500 credit to buy EVs. The law also requires that some manufacturing and assembly of EVs happens right here at home in the U.S. And as an important first, this law will dedicate between around $60 billion to environmental and climate justice efforts.

On the heels of the most transformative climate legislation in history, the clean energy movement is poised for action. Against this backdrop, how can climate and cleantech attract and elevate diverse voices that reflect the communities where equitable and just climate action is needed most? As a cleantech communications agency with diversity, equity, and inclusion at our core, Silverline wondered how Black leaders in cleantech are addressing the issue, so we partnered with Canary Media to develop and sponsor a forum on Accelerating Black Leadership in Climate Tech.

There are still Wonders of the World, and one of the most amazing in the Gemini Solar + Storage Project in the Mojave Desert outside Las Vegas, Nevada. We applaud developer Primergy Energy and integrator IHI Terrasun for building the largest solar + storage endeavor in the Americas. Learn the three key factors to success in this clean energy endeavor.

September could be called Climate Month 2022, as those working in the climate space navigated accessing the federal funding provided by the Inflation Reduction Act while attending ClimateWeekNYC and RE+ in Anaheim. Silverline leaders share insights after participating in both events, with an emphasis on clean energy in buildings and infrastructure, the happy marriage of solar and energy storage, and environmental justice.

TV meteorologists across the country had been increasingly talking about the impacts of climate change and their newscasts and are helping viewers to understand how the changes in our climate impact their local communities, and why it's so critical to find solutions.

Silverline climate change expert Brad Carl breaks down what the latest report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) means for efforts to combat the climate crisis and invest in clean energy.

Rich Steinberg, expert in eMobility, automotive industry veteran and Silverline’s Mobility Advisor discusses how leveraging opportunities in EV charging infrastructure and strategic partnerships will drive the next phase of electric vehicle growth.

The Inflation Reduction Act will bring renewables onto the grid, modernize infrastructure, accelerate electric mobility, and improve public health. Silverline urges the House to pass this transformational climate and clean energy legislation and send it to the President’s desk to deliver on the promise of this decisive decade ahead.

After decades of wrangling over climate legislation, policymakers have created a historic and far-reaching clean energy package that will determine our future as Americans and global citizens. Silverline President and industry veteran Laura Taylor weighs in on what that means for our clean energy communications agency.
