Manufacturing the Future of Clean Energy with 48C

During the Great Recession, the 48C advanced energy manufacturing tax credit spurred investment in American manufacturing facilities right when it was needed most. In the midst of the COVID-19 recession, we need tools like 48C once again to put Americans back to work, strengthen domestic manufacturing, and help in the fight against climate change.

On December 16, at 10:30 a.m. ET, Third Way, the BlueGreen Alliance, and Environmental Defense Fund co-hosted a webinar on to discuss 48C’s past success and how it can be revived to meet today’s urgent needs.
