Pre-Conference Workshop: Where the Rubber Meets (some of) the Road: Equitable IRA Implementation

Co-hosted by the NC League of Conservation Voters and Duke Design Climate.

It’s been over two years since the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, and many programs are beginning to roll out throughout the state. From rebates to tax credits to low interest loans, there are programs available for everyone. This workshop aims to give on-the-ground perspectives on how and where funding is moving in North Carolina’s communities with an intentional focus on low-income and underserved areas. Through panel discussions and interactive workshops, we will illuminate the challenges and opportunities for community advocates, government agencies, and utilities working to implement the IRA.
