How to spend one trillion dollars: the US decarbonization conundrum
Briefly

In response to the pressing challenge of climate change, the U.S. has committed over $1 trillion in legislation focused on nurturing a low-carbon economy, primarily through federal efforts.
State and local governments will play a critical role in implementing programs supporting energy efficiency and electrification, yet face difficult trade-offs on prioritization and execution.
The partnership between researchers and policymakers is vital for evaluating decarbonization strategies, ensuring investments not only meet current needs but also align with long-term climate goals.
To optimize decarbonization efforts and meet the Paris climate commitments by 2050, it is imperative that policies allow for thorough evaluations of their effectiveness.
