The Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) and Labor Standards

July 19, 2024

The Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF), made possible by the Inflation Reduction Act, represents a $27 billion federal investment into the clean energy economy. In order to create good clean energy jobs with this financing, recipients and subrecipients of GGRF funds should utilize high-road labor standards in addition to adhering to the prevailing wage and domestic content required by EPA. An analysis commissioned by the BlueGreen Alliance concluded that state green banks and other sub-recipients can attach additional labor standards to NCIF and CCIA funds they receive from EPA.

This fact sheet includes a summary of provisions required and encouraged by the EPA.
