This chart by Michael Thomas shows where the clean-energy spending from the Inflation Reduction Act was spent. It mostly went to Republican-controlled districts. The big question now is whether those Republican lawmakers step up to save the law, which their party’s majority

Trump promised energy dominance and lower prices, but sweeping tariffs do the opposite. In a policy brief for Clean Air Task Force, David Yellen & I outline how they raise costs, chill investment, and stall manufacturing. We also suggest smarter policy options: catf.us/resource/polic…

Levelized cost of energy is the metric many of us have used to compare different energy sources — especially journalists and policymakers. The problem is, it’s not a very accurate measurement. Just look at what just happened in Ontario.

Europe has long led on fusion science. But without a strategy to turn research into commercial deployment, it risks falling behind the U.S. and China in the global fusion energy race. Our new policy brief lays out a path to close the gap ⬇️ catf.us/resource/fusio…

Siting policy will make or break the clean energy transition – but current policies aren’t up to the task. Local bans, state preemption, and public opposition are slowing down clean energy development – even where federal incentives exist. We need a better path forward.

#Ghana’s stronger cedi won’t fix its electricity crisis. New analysis from CATF shows power prices remain high due to legacy debt, inefficiencies, and opaque tariffs – not just currency pressure. Structural reform is the only way forward. catf.us/resource/stron…
