US election: the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and the risk of repeal – Implications for investors

Key Takeaways

  • The IRA was designed to drive investment in domestic energy production and promote clean energy. Since August 2022 clean tech investment announcements have risen 60%. Batteries and solar power have been the main beneficiaries and around 80,000 jobs have been created.

  • The upcoming US election raises uncertainty. A Democrat victory would likely see initiatives continue. A Republican win could mean repeal.

  • In the latter scenario we think a partial repeal is more likely. There is a capital investment supercycle in the US with many supporting initiatives having bipartisan support.

  • With structural themes – like the energy transition – looking set to remain intact, we see selective opportunities in companies well placed to benefit.
