Native-led renewable energy projects expand with new support
Native-led renewable energy projects are gaining momentum with support from the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act, offering Tribes tax credits covering up to 70% of costs and $20 billion in energy loans. However, challenges persist, including funding gaps, resource limitations, and infrastructure hurdles like access to transmission lines.
Organizations like SAGE, Alliance for Tribal Clean Energy, and Grid Alternatives are stepping in to provide funding, advocacy, and resources. These initiatives align with cultural values and strengthen sovereignty while building a sustainable future.
