What to Watch in the Energy System in 2023 (and Beyond): Introduction
Advanced Energy United is looking at macro trends impacting the electricity system in 2023 and beyond.
If you’re feeling like you can’t keep up with the accelerating pace of change in the energy sector, you aren’t alone. 2022 was another banner year for advanced energy and transportation. Through Advanced Energy United’s work tracking and supporting the energy transition across the country, we have identified a set of powerful, interrelated trends to keep an eye on as we move further into 2023. Some of these have been building for years and some are new on the scene, but together, they are set to fundamentally transform the energy system in the next 10 to 20 years.

Election 2022: More Wins Than Losses for Advanced Energy
The 2022 election is still not in the books, but with the outcome of most contests already known, advanced energy and its champions at the state and federal level were clear winners. Heading into any midterm election we expect to see a swing away from the sitting president’s party. This year that meant the potential to see the progress of the past four years slowed in key states across the country and at the federal level. But now, with the votes mostly tallied, we can say the stage is set for more clean energy progress next year, especially with the funds and incentives from federal legislation arriving in states ready to put it to work.

How Can States Make the Most of IRA? We Have Guides for That
Last week, the White House and Congress celebrated the one-year anniversary of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act – IIJA, also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. Between IIJA and the more-recently enacted Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), the federal government has devoted almost $500 billion in grants, tax credits, and other incentives to accelerate America’s energy transition, electrify transportation, and address many of the energy-related challenges facing the nation. For all the attention paid to the work inside the Beltway, however, whether the U.S. realizes that potential hinges largely on what happens outside the Beltway.
