Dear Friend,
At times this legislative road has felt long and circuitous. But yesterday's signing of the Inflation Reduction Act means the path has become smoother, and more amenable to the growing fleet of electric vehicles that will soon be driving on it. The IRA is the most important climate legislation America has ever seen, but it won’t be the last. The law establishes the market certainty households need to build the affordable, beautiful futures they deserve. It’s the beginning of a better story.
Thanks to the clean energy provisions in the IRA, households will be able to swap out dirty machines for clean ones at a pace that works for them. The act gives families the ability to plan. It meets people where they are, and allows them to charge forward on their own timelines, as they create their own electrification journeys.
Beyond the home health and energy security implications, American families will save money electrifying (on average $1800 per household). But one of the most empowering aspects of this legislation is that it accelerates our transformation year over year, because increased adoption means decreased cost at scale. The more we electrify, the cheaper it is to electrify. And this will happen at a rapidly intensifying clip, in every zip code across the country. This legislation will also commence the largest transfer of wealth from energy producers to households, the rightful recipients of these savings.
The households that run to these incentives first not only reap the benefits of immediately lower bills and healthier homes, but perform a true service to all Americans. They drive uptake, and reduce friction for their friends and their communities. Their efforts make it easier for their neighbors to power up. It’s a virtuous cycle that helps electrify the entire economy. And it builds community strength and wealth, creating an abundant future for our children.
Now that this bill is signed into law, we can begin to realize the immediate benefits of electrifying everything together. To that effect, we've built a household savings calculator to help you instantly see the incentives available to you on your electric journey. Let's get started! Now!

Of course, we welcome your feedback as we build out this tool: What works? What doesn’t work? What would you like to see? And how will YOU electrify? Please let us know so we can improve our tools and build great things together.
Can we ask you to share?
What will you get? Try the calculator and share your findings on your social channels today. What will you electrify first? We’d love to know. (And tag us, friends!)
