President Biden campaigned on the promises of producing 100% of America's electricity with clean energy resources by 2035 and getting America's economy to Net Zero emissions by 2050.  Since President Biden took office, the US Congress has passed the Bi-partisan Infrastructure Law, the Inflation Reduction Act, and the CHIPs and Science Act - all aimed at helping America transition to a clean energy economy.  In addition to creating incentives for private companies to invest in clean energy manufacturing in America, those three bills also provided billions of dollars to the United States Department of Energy to oversee the research, development, and deployment of clean energy technologies. Secretary Jennifer Granholm has led the Department of Energy throughout the entire Biden Administration and has completely restructured the Department to achieve President Biden's clean energy goals for America.  This week, Secretary Granholm joins The Climate Pod to discuss how the DOE helps enable the deployment of new clean energy technologies, what should be done about technology companies ramping up their energy consumption due to massive data centers, what the DOE could look like under a second Biden or Trump presidential term, and so much more.
