Climate & Energy Resources for Faith Communities

July 18, 2023, at Noon PDT - Interfaith Power and Light is having a webinar briefing with the U.S. Department of Energy on the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA): Climate & Energy Resources for Faith Communities: Learn more about direct pay, tax credits, programs, and the role faith communities can play in helping our country address the climate crisis and ensure that all communities are supported. Register here.

"The IRA and the IIJA created the largest climate and clean energy investment America has ever made. These bills provide federal funding for energy and climate resiliency improvements that can be used in houses of worship and our individual homes. This historic legislation provides people of faith and conscience with an opportunity to live our values of caring for one another and for our Sacred Earth."

"The IRA included clean energy tax credits for wind and solar, EVs, efficiency upgrades, heat pumps, and much more. It also made it easier for nonprofits and houses of worship to access clean energy funds and tax credits through a program called “direct pay.” Before the IRA, only homeowners and commercial entities with some tax liability could claim tax credits when installing solar panels or other eligible technologies on an eligible property. Now, the “direct pay” option means non-taxable entities can also benefit from these credits."

If you aren't able to attend, you can still register, and IFPL will send the recording out to everyone who registered.
