INFLATION REDUCTION ACT: Infrastructure Implementation Resources

This resource provides a one-stop-shop for Governors’ infrastructure, energy and environment advisors as they look to leverage infrastructure provisions in the IRA. Given overlap between some programs in the IRA and the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), and in the context of the recently signed CHIPS and Science Act, this resource aims to support Governors’ advisors as they look to leverage various federal, state, and private sector funding opportunities to achieve their Governor’s agenda.

The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) was signed into law by the President on August 16, 2022. The IRA provides billions of dollars in incentives, grants and loans to support new infrastructure investments in the areas of clean energy, transportation and the environment. In many instances, states and territories are eligible to apply for infrastructure programs directly or can partner with local governments and the private sector to maximize benefits for their communities.

United States Department of Agriculture

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is responsible for administering over $43 billion in IRA funding. Major programs include investments in affordable and clean energy for rural communities, investments in biofuels, and investments in nature-based solutions and climate smart agriculture through the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP).

United States Department of Treasury/Internal Revenue Service

While IRA funds will pass through numerous federal agencies, the U.S. Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service have been tasked with administering more than $250 billion in tax credits. The Treasury Department is also tasked with administering several of the key revenue portions of the IRA, including changes to the corporate minimum tax and IRS tax enforcement funding.


The Treasury Department released new guidance to clarify the funding, eligible projects, and the application process for two programs under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). As part of one of the programs, Treasury said it anticipates about $1.6 billion will be initially reserved for projects in coal communities. Under the structure of the law, the tax credit values increase fivefold when projects meet prevailing wage and apprenticeship requirements. Projects can also get an additional credit boost by locating in low-income communities or energy communities — which the legislation defines as brownfield sites, an area dependent on the extraction, processing, transport or storage of fossil fuels, or a tract near a shuttered coal mine or coal-fired power plant. The IRS anticipate providing at least two allocation rounds under the program — the first of which will total $4 billion. Approximately $1.6 billion of that will be allocated to projects located in certain energy communities. The application process for the advanced energy project credit program will begin on May 31, while applications for the new low-income communities bonus credit program will open in two phases this year. For more information, see the press release


The Treasury Department updated the vehicle classification standard used to determine the applicable Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) limitation for clean vehicle tax credits available under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). The move comes after weeks of campaigning by automakers who argued that the standard Treasury was using — which classified several popular vehicles as cars, subject to the $55,000 price cap, rather than SUVs subject to the $80,000 price cap —was confusing for consumers and could cause them to lose out on the tax credit. Under the change, the standard would rely on EPA’s fuel economy labeling standard, rather than the EPA CAFE standard. The previous classification of some small SUVs as cars would make some vehicles ineligible for the tax credit since they cost more than $55,000. For more information, find the press release here


United States Department of Energy

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is responsible for administering IRA loan authorities to provide direct loans and loan guarantees across three key programs: Energy Infrastructure Reinvestment, Innovative Clean Energy, and Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturing. In total the Department of Energy’s Loan Program Office will administer $367 billion in loan authorities. DOE is also committed to accelerating the buildout of long-distance transmission through $2 billion in support for transmission facility financing and $760 in grants to support the siting of interstate transmission projects. 

United States Environmental Protection Agency

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) hosts a wide variety of IRA programs, representing over $41 billion in IRA funding. These programs include the $27 billion Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund, the Methane Emissions Reduction Program, investments in protecting vulnerable communities from air pollution, and investments in permitting and improving pollution monitoring.


The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced initial guidance on the design of the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) program, created by the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). EPA published two Federal Assistance Listings outlining key parameters of the grant competitions that will ultimately award nearly $27 billion to leverage private capital for clean energy and clean air investments across the country. Federal Assistance Listings are the first public notice requirement to implement a federal grant program. EPA will hold two competitions to distribute grant funding under the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund: a $20 billion General and Low-Income Assistance Competition and a $7 billion Zero-Emissions Technology Fund Competition. EPA expects to open competitions for funding under the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund by summer 2023. For more information, see the press release


United States Department of Transportation

The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) is responsible for administering IRA incentives to support sustainable aviation fuels and has been tasked with administering the $3.2bn Neighborhood Access and Equity Grant Program, which provides funding to states and localities to improve transportation access, clean up environmental harms and support planning and capacity building support. Additionally, the Federal Highway Administration will implement the $2bn Low-Carbon Transportation Materials Program for federally funded highway projects and has been provided $100m to support efficient environmental reviews.

United States Department of the Interior

The U.S. Department of Interior (DOI) is responsible for administering several new programs, including the $150m Tribal Electrification Program, nature-based climate resiliency measures, and programs to support communities from extreme weather events. The IRA provides $150m to DOI to support effective and efficient environmental reviews.

United States Department of Housing and Urban Development

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is responsible for several IRA programs to improve energy and water efficiency, air quality, lower emissions and enhance resiliency of HUD-assisted multifamily properties.

United States Department of Commerce/NOAA

The U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has been allocated $2.6bn towards its coastal resilience and communities’ program, as well as funding for facilities that support the National Marine Sanctuary System. NOAA has also been provided additional funding through the IRA for weather and climate research, hurricane forecasting aircraft and for improving computer capacity and research for weather, oceans and climate.

Statement from NOAA Administrator on Signing of Inflation Reduction Act

United States Department of Labor

The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) plays an ancillary role in implementing employment requirements in the IRA which are administered by Treasury and the IRS. Under the IRA, taxpayers may receive increased tax benefits by meeting prevailing wage and apprenticeship requirements which are established and supported by DOL.

Engaging Employers In The Apprenticeship System Through IRA Tax Incentives

The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) of 2022 is the largest federal investment in clean energy in U.S. history and includes substantial tax incentives for employers who pay prevailing wages and employ registered apprentices on qualifying energy projects. State workforce development leaders are well positioned to partner with energy sector employers by developing and scaling apprenticeship programs so employers can meet the IRA’s apprenticeship requirements and qualify for more tax credits.
