Funding from President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law Will Create Good-Paying Manufacturing Jobs, Build Clean Energy Supply Chains, and Reduce Industrial Emissions— The U.S. Department of Energy today announced $425 million in funding to reduce industrial emissions and advance clean energy manufacturing essential to the U.S. energy supply chain as part of President Biden’s Investing in America agenda.
The Advanced Manufacturing and Recycling Grant Program is one of many historic BIL investments that supports the President Biden’s agenda to grow the U.S. industrial base and strengthen our supply chains, which includes investing in clean energy manufacturing. The program works to establish secure, resilient, domestic energy supply chains while creating high-quality jobs and revitalizing energy communities.
In this second round, DOE will prioritize two investment themes or “areas of interest”: 1) Clean Energy Manufacturing and Recycling and 2) Industrial Decarbonization. Applications for Clean Energy Manufacturing and Recycling should aim to establish, re-equip, or expand an existing manufacturing or recycling facility for the production or recycling of advanced energy.
All applicants are required to submit a plan demonstrating the project’s quantifiable impact and benefits to the workers and the local community throughto: engaging communities and labor; investing in America’s workers through quality jobs; advancing diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility; and implementing the President’s Justice40 Initiative, which set the goal of 40% of the overall benefits of certain federal investments flow to disadvantaged communities.
The mission of the U.S. Energy Department is to ensure America’s security and prosperity by addressing its energy, environmental and nuclear challenges through transformative science and technology solutions. Learn more.
