American Clean Power
Our Policy Agenda
We are uniting companies from across the clean power sector to support policies that will remove barriers and accelerate growth in America’s renewable energy industry.
Working together, we can rebuild our economy and address climate change.
Within the next decade, we can create one million new jobs and generate more than half of our electricity from renewable energy. Our policy agenda aims to:
- Expand demand for renewable energy technologies at a national, regional and state level.
- Remove barriers of entry through regulatory, permitting and siting reforms.
- Establish long-term market certainty to ensure increased investment and manufacturing of renewable energy technologies.
- Invest in a national electric grid that is reliable, secure, clean, and designed for a renewable future.
- Develop a robust, stable, and diverse renewable energy workforce.
