National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA)

With 9,000% growth in e-mobility power consumption by 2050, according to NEMA's recent grid reliability study, the need for scalable, secure, and domestic solutions has never been greater. From charging and transportation infrastructure to connected and autonomous vehicle technologies, NEMA members are engineering the future of mobility and optimizing every connection along the way.

NEMA’s Make It American™ Program is powering a new era of domestic manufacturing leadership. In her new The Washington Times op-ed, NEMA President & CEO Debra Phillips explains how U.S. electrical manufacturers are rising to meet today’s urgent infrastructure demands through domestic production and smart policy. That call is echoed across the industry. Leaders from Eaton, Schneider Electric, Siemens, Southwire Company, TESCO Metering, and NEMA signed an open letter calling for bold action to strengthen U.S. manufacturing.

NEMA welcomes the introduction of the bipartisan CIRCUIT Act in the House. This legislation will expand the list of entities included in the Advanced Manufacturing Tax Credit (45X) to include distribution transformers that are essential to building a reliable electrical grid. Thank you to Rep. Russell Fry (R-SC) and Rep. Sharice Davids (D-KS) for their leadership to support our nation’s critical infrastructure. https://lnkd.in/eUmT2qRk

Today, NEMA announced the development of Basic Application Profiles (BAPs) which act as a clear, consensus-based blueprint to help utilities and manufacturers implement interoperable, efficient, and scalable digital substations from the beginning.

On a hot day in DC, our sleeves are rolled up working on the hot topics of load growth and energy supplies with National Governors Association leaders and experts from McKinsey & Company. National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) and members like Schneider Electric are highlighting grid efficiency solutions that can help.

NEMA applauds the introduction of the Veterans Energy Transition (VET) Act, which will help match veterans who have a wide range of technical and operational skills with the manufacturers of critical electrical equipment and components. https://lnkd.in/exBm_NF7

Thank you to all who joined us for the Congressional Built Environment Expo during High-Performance Building Week on Capitol Hill. We were proud to bring together policymakers and NEMA members to spotlight the technologies making America’s buildings more resilient—from advanced lighting and building automation systems to energy storage innovations. Special thanks to Rep. Rob Bresnahan, Rep. Scott Perry, and Rep. Darrell Issa for stopping by to demo the technologies on display, and to our exhibiting member companies: ABB, Lutron Electronics, nVent, Phoenix Contact, Schneider Electric, Siemens, and Space Age Electronics, Inc..

NEMA applauds the introduction of the Pro Codes Act (H.R. 4072), which supports and preserves public access to critical safety standards. We thank Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) and Rep. Deborah Ross (D-PA) for their leadership on this issue. As an SDO with a 100-year legacy, NEMA is laser-focused on leading the development of consensus-based and science-backed standards that protect public safety, benefit communities, and drive economic growth. https://lnkd.in/eVJWxxHE
