Renewable energy companies and utilities have also long complained about the time it takes to secure permits for power generation projects and transmission lines required to move the power to markets., said he supported the IRA because it provided incentives to find climate change solutions. But "managing the micro-level permitting issues are equally important," he added.
"The permitting process for clean energy infrastructure, including transmission, is plagued by delays and bottlenecks," Podesta said. "To be sure, plenty of delays happen at the state local level and those need to be addressed. But there's plenty that we can do and must do federally."
