Abstract/Summary:

Authors' Impact/Purpose: This report documents methods used to analyze the economic and environmental impacts of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), enacted in August 2022 by the United States Congress. The analysis relies on the U.S. Regional Energy Policy (USREP) economy-wide model developed by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), linked with the Regional Energy Deployment System (ReEDS) electricity sector model developed by researchers at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).
