Federal Funding Programs for Clean Industrial Innovation: A Guide for States

Many states and companies are seeking to expand industrial innovation and deployment of clean industrial technologies in the interests of economic growth, job creation, and emission reductions. The federal government, largely through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), offers scores of funding programs designed to accelerate industrial sector decarbonization. These include financial support for multiple industrial sectors and funding for programs to advance capacity building, pollution reduction projects, and community engagement.  

This document serves as a resource for states officials, businesses, communities, advocates, and others to understand how IIJA and IRA funding can be used for holistic advancement of industrial technology innovation and decarbonization.
