Buying Power: How Federal Procurement Can Drive Clean Energy Innovation
Event Summary
Use of federal procurement to advance national clean energy goals and accelerate innovation has had limited success in the past. The Biden administration seeks to break this pattern with an ambitious “buy clean” program. For its effort to succeed, the plan must be well-aligned with agency missions, funded adequately, and fix perverse budget and procurement rules.
