It has devastated American public health and economic stability, and its painful repercussions will be felt for years to come. As we shift from relief and recovery to rebuilding our economy, Congress is considering historic investments in our nation’s infrastructure, which forms the backbone or our economic prosperity. It is critical to ensure that federal investments in rebuilding our economy are made strategically and responsibly for a competitive 21st century economic landscape. One area that will reap returns in both the short and long-term is our nation’s energy infrastructure. Smart investments in this space mean deploying clean energy and energy efficient technologies here at home and ensuring cleantech of the future is designed and built in America by Americans. Clean energy and energy efficiency have been pillars of American industry. In early March 2020, over 3.2 million Americans worked in clean energy, more than any other energy sector.
