While former President Trump eliminated over $540 billion in Biden-era clean energy tax incentives, about $600 billion in congressionally approved spending on climate and clean energy initiatives has largely remained intact, resisting attempts at repeal.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech, and 4 sources have reported it between 15 Aug 2026 and 17 Aug 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You need to factor persistent government spending into your clean energy plans as $600 billion in Biden-era funds survived Trump’s rollback attempts, signalling continued financial flows despite political shifts.
