As 2023 wraps, I’m reflecting on the Biden-Harris Administration’s accomplishments in climate and clean energy. I’ve been working on this topic for over two decades, and there were always lists of good ideas that somebody should do. A lot of those good ideas, GOT DONE. A thread:

I've been working in vehicle electrification for most of my career. Electrifying the postal fleet was a climate solution everyone agreed on:
- Predictable routes
- Easy charging
- Cleans the air
- Saves fuel $
But it never got done
@POTUS
Got. It. Done.

2023 is the year of the heat pump ⚡️

Here’s a thing everyone needs to know: A few decades ago, heat pumps couldn’t heat well when it was really cold. But the heat pumps available today work well and are very efficient!
Also, the Inflation Reduction Act can save you money on a heat pump:

I’ve been working in climate and energy policy for two decades. And plenty of folks have been working longer. Whether you started 50 years ago or 50 hours ago, today’s historic win for the American people is because of you. Peoples’ lives will be better because of you. Thank you.

2 years ago, climate policy was mostly a bunch of good ideas in PDFs.
2 years later, we are here. Climate laws & leadership.
Against all odds, the Biden-Harris Administration did the most ambitious climate policy in history.
The most ambitious climate policy in history…so far

Hello! I’m Costa Samaras,

What's in the President's budget for energy & climate? 🧵
⚡$3.3 billion to support clean energy projects
🏡$502 million to weatherize low-income homes, including $100 million to electrify low-income homes, & $260 million for energy efficiency in USDA-assisted multifamily homes

Idea: Tax credits for EVs should be available right at the dealership
Action: Thanks to the Inflation Reduction act, starting TOMORROW, January 1, 2024, EV buyers can apply the credit upfront at the dealership instead of when they file their tax returns.

And here's what the research by Laura Roberson and
@JohnHelveston
says: many consumers prefer an immediate EV rebate over a tax credit, & consider a rebate to be worth about $1500 more. The option for a rebate increases equity & gets more EVs on the road.
Subtle/under-appreciated detail of the new & used EV tax credits in the Inflation Reduction Act: credits can now be transferred to the dealer at point of sale, which means you get $$ off the purchase price, instead of having to wait until you file taxes next April.

Energy security comes from energy availability & insulation from global price spikes
• Oil powers 90% of US transport but only 1% of US electricity
• Oil price set on global market
• Oil price spikes ripple through economy

The CHIPS & Science Act is a “innovation push” policy. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is a demonstration & infrastructure policy. The IRA is a “clean demand pull” policy. Individually, they’re great. Together they’re incredible. They enable a clean energy economy for everyone.

Offshore wind power is close to cities where electricity is needed, & can take advantage of consistently higher wind speeds, producing more electricity. The
