Tracking where federal investment is going and for what projects is critical to understanding how these policies are benefiting communities and strengthening America’s energy system – and what is at stake should they be disrupted.
Key takeaways
Federal funding for clean energy is going to red and blue states alike, creating economic opportunities across the country.
These projects depend on sustained federal incentives, including grants and tax credits. As shown on the map, there is still a large percentage of investment funding outstanding, putting these projects and the benefits they bring at risk should actions disrupt their distribution.
- As of March 2025, for every $1.00 invested in clean energy in a Democratic district, approximately $3.80 has been invested in a Republican district.
- On average, Republican districts have a higher share of outstanding clean energy-related investments than Democratic districts.
- More completed projects and jobs have been generated in Republican districts than Democratic districts.

The purpose of this map tool is to share information about local investments stimulated by federal incentives across the United States. Current Investments and Completed Projects represent actual capital expenditures and completed facilities between July 2022 and March 2025. Outstanding Investments reports projected dollar amounts of investments not yet spent as of March 2025. The map also includes project or facility-level information across a variety of technologies and sectors that have benefited from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the Inflation Reduction Act. This includes projects or facilities that have been announced, are currently under construction, or completed as of March 2025.
