  • We make a stronger future work.*

    Supporting the modernization of our nation’s critical infrastructure and investment in a clean energy future is how we make what matters work.

*Building a sustainable and resilient future

Envisioning an America where every community has the opportunity to flourish and every person has access to resources to live a quality life is enough inspire a powerful transformation. With the passage of the American Rescue Plan (ARP) Act, Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), there is an unprecedented opportunity—through direct funds, grants, tax credits, tax incentives and rebates—to invest in reshaping our nation’s infrastructure. From expanding our electric vehicle charging infrastructure to improving water quality and home energy use, now is the time to leverage technology to reduce our environmental footprint and leave a healthier planet for our children.

Funding options for infrastructure improvements: America's clean energy, stimulus and infrastructure initiatives 

Inflation Reduction Act (IRA)

The recently passed Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) will support approximately $370 billion in climate and energy proposals including energy tax credits for hydrogen, nuclear, renewables and Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) such as wind, solar, energy storage, microgrids and hydropower. In addition, the bill modifies and expands electric vehicle (EV) and EV charging infrastructure (EVCI) tax credits and introduces several other tax incentives and rebate programs to support residential energy efficiency improvements for homeowners.

Under the CARES Act, a change was made to the Internal Revenue Code to assign a 15-year recovery period to Qualified Improvement Property (QIP). Businesses can now treat QIP placed in service after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2023 as 15-year property, which makes it eligible for 100% bonus depreciation, allowing taxpayers to take a full deduction for the cost of eligible QIP in a single year. Learn more about what qualifies as a QIP and how Eaton’s products and services can help.

Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund (ESSER)

Under ESSER, $13.2 billion of federal funding is accessible through state and local educational agencies to support public and private K-12 schools. ESSER funds have fallen under both the CARES Act and American Rescue Plan (ARP) Act. Some of the projects that will qualify, include, but are not limited to facility repairs and upgrades to reopen schools safely, provide better air quality, modernize HVAC and improve IT infrastructure.
