Funds Begin to Flow from Inflation Reduction Act
IRA funding is now available, and a guidebook released by the White House in December 2022 lays out new details for every program and provision. Those relating to the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of buildings fall into five categories:
- Non-residential buildings: energy upgrades and retrofit programs
- Residential buildings: energy upgrades, resilience, and new construction
- Reduction of embodied carbon in construction materials
- Adoption of the latest energy codes
- Increased community resilience to climate change
The details of each program are available in the table.
