US President takes executive action to spur clean energy manufacturing
“The actions include authorizing defense production act to lower energy costs, strengthen power grid, and create good-paying jobs,” White House said in a statement.
“Today’s clean energy technologies are a critical part of the arsenal we must harness to lower energy costs for families, reduce risks to our power grid, and tackle the urgent crisis of a changing climate,” the statement said.
“From day one, President Biden has mobilized investment in these critical technologies. Thanks to his clean energy and climate agenda, last year marked the largest deployment of solar, wind, and batteries in the United States history, and our nation is now a magnet for investment in clean energy manufacturing,” it added.
