Put the full power of federal procurement to work spurring additional domestic solar manufacturing capacity by directing the development of master supply agreements, including “super preference” status and.Authorize use of the Defense Production Act (DPA) to accelerate domestic production of clean energy technologies, including solar panel parts.Today, President Biden is taking action to: While President Biden continues pushing Congress to pass clean energy investments and tax cuts, he is taking bold action to rapidly build on this progress and create a bridge to this American-made clean energy future. This would total 22.5 gigawatts by the end of his first term – enough to enable more than 3.3 million homes to switch to clean solar energy each year. The expansions to domestic solar manufacturing capacity announced since President Biden took office will grow the current base capacity of 7.5 gigawatts by an additional 15 gigawatts. We are also now on track to triple domestic solar manufacturing capacity by 2024. And companies are investing billions more to grow a new domestic offshore wind industry. We have made historic investments in clean hydrogen, nuclear, and other cutting-edge technologies. Since President Biden took office, the private sector has committed over $100 billion in new private capital to make electric vehicles and batteries in the United States. Thanks to his clean energy and climate agenda, last year marked the largest deployment of solar, wind, and batteries in United States history, and our nation is now a magnet for investment in clean energy manufacturing.

From day one, President Biden has mobilized investment in these critical technologies. 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. Historic Actions Include Authorizing Defense Production Act to Lower Energy Costs, Strengthen Power Grid, and Create Good-Paying Jobs
