?? Three Words.
If you’ve been following our newsletter for a while now, you’ve heard us talk about how President Biden is working to bring down energy costs for families, make EVs more accessible and affordable, and create jobs in every pocket of the country.?
But… how is he doing that? ??
Three words: INVESTING. IN. AMERICA.
?? Building America's Clean Energy Future
When you invest in America, you are building up the U.S. as THE PLACE to grow and drive innovation and success. Companies see that, and then decide to build or expand their operations here in the U.S., which in turn generates additional private sector investments that support American communities.
But making sure that people can see themselves in these investments — and how these efforts are creating jobs, lowering prices, and making communities safer — is hugely important to us.
?? The Highlights
As of September 2023, some highlights from companies’ announcements since President Biden took office:

Professor at University of Texas El Paso
1 年I notice the El Paso region is empty, but this area could be huge for solar and geothermal as well as supplying REEs and lithium. I hope investors will notice us. We have great natural potential and the people are well-educated and hard-working. Add to that the fact that we are a cross-roads for transportation of goods, and you have a unique opportunity.

1 年It is a complete was of money. Once all the subsidies run all the companies involved will go to the wayside and people will loose their jobs over lies from the Biden Admin.
