PACE: Pathways to Accelerating Clean Energy

Clean energy is cheaper and more available than ever, yet projects across the country still face roadblocks. From complex permitting, community pushback, and regulatory red tape, non-cost barriers are slowing progress just when the stakes are highest. To uncover what’s holding projects back from wide scale deployment, Third Way launched the Pathways to Accelerating Clean Energy (PACE) project with Environmental Resources Management (ERM). We surveyed more than 200 solar and transmission practitioners with experience across thousands of projects. Our findings reveal where bottlenecks are putting America’s energy future at risk and how smart policy and pragmatic reform can build a cleaner, faster, more reliable energy system for every American.
