Since passage of the IRA, over $240 billion has been invested in clean energy manufacturing and infrastructure projects, according to a White House report. This includes over $86 billion invested in nearly 300 new solar, wind, and battery energy storage projects.
Along with this tide of investments has come a wave of “green collar” jobs, said Intersolar. Over 170,000 direct jobs have been created since IRA as the industry adds positions in engineering, business development, manufacturing, construction, transportation, and more. The Intersolar report forecast as many as 1.5 million new jobs in clean energy can be expected by 2030.
