Clean Energy Plan Brings New Jobs, Lower Costs To Georgia

There’s a clean energy job boom happening in Georgia—and the Biden Administration is making it happen.

The Inflation Reduction Act’s clean energy provisions will invest more than $18 billion in Georgia for a healthier, more prosperous, and just future.

It will lower Georgians’ energy costs, make our infrastructure more resilient, and put our country on the road to energy independence.

In just one year, President Biden’s landmark climate investment has created over 16,000 new clean energy jobs across Georgia.

Since August 2022, more than 20 additional clean energy projects have been created in Georgia, like Hyundai’s multi-billion dollar investment in Atlanta and QCells’ expansion in Cartersville. These projects are paving the way for more good paying jobs in the state.

The Biden Administration’s plan for the clean energy economy also invests in an affordable and reliable energy grid—instead of wasting money on dirty energy that pollutes our communities’ air and water, overheats the planet, and creates even more extreme weather such as droughts and heat waves. 

But this is ONLY the beginning.
