The Department of Energy is making significant investments in renewable energy projects across the United States, with a particular focus on supporting rural and Native American communities. A total of $125M is being allocated to rural energy projects in Alaska to create jobs, reduce emissions, and lower electricity bills. Additionally, $366 million has been earmarked for renewable energy projects for Native Americans, including those in Nevada. Overall, the Biden administration has announced over $350 million in funding from the Investing in America agenda for 17 projects across 20 states and 30 Tribal Nations and communities. These projects aim to accelerate the deployment of clean energy in rural and remote areas, involving technologies such as solar, battery storage, and hydropower.

I'm thrilled the Biden administration has unlocked funds in New Bedford, Medford, Somerville, and Boston to increase energy efficiency which will reduce energy costs and improve air quality. We're setting IRA funds in motion to deliver for communities. Now let's keep going.
EDA's investments are working and having a meaningful impact in communities across America. We appreciate the bipartisan statement of support from the nation's governors for EDA’s reauthorization. - @AsstSecCastillo at the Appalachian Regional Commission meeting in DC. https://t.co/MsEGn8KWCv
