The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) brings historic investment and focus to building retrofits and electrification on a national scale while providing significant financial resources and local job creation.

Please attend this moderated discussion which seeks to demystify the IRA and provide insights into how the programs are being designed.

During this panel event, our speakers will cover how this historic legislation will support the goals of energy efficient building retrofits, building electrification, EV transportation and decarbonization in the Mid-Atlantic. This session will include insights from policymakers and program experts on how they are approaching this increased funding and the complexities of state energy office led programs.

Presenters:

• Nate Gillespie, Pepco Holdings – Welcome and introduction
• Will Ellis, Pepco Holdings – Panel Moderator
• Alan Propp, DC Office of the Deputy Mayor for Operations and Infrastructure – Clean Schools Bus Program
• Earl Lewis, Maryland Department of Transportation – National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure

Following the symposium, we will host a networking holiday event with food and drinks to continue our discussions and to reconnect with colleagues and business partners.
