To build a reliable, affordable and clean electric power system, the U.S. energy industry and customers will need to shift their thinking about what a reliable system looks like, according to a study from nonprofit think tank Energy Innovation Policy & Technology.

As overall power production ticked up in New England in 2024, natural gas generation reached its highest annual total in the region’s history, accounting for over 55% of all generation and 51% of net energy for load, according to new data from ISO-NE.

Minutes after he was sworn in as 47th president of the United States, Donald Trump signaled his intention to rapidly increase production of oil and gas.

Chris Wright, President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee to head the Department of Energy, positioned himself as a supporter of an all-of-the-above approach to developing generation and transmission before the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee.

With days left in his administration, President Joe Biden issued an executive order aimed at siting and permitting cutting-edge artificial intelligence data centers on federal land by 2027.

NYISO’s early 2025 will likely be dominated by the Reliability Needs Assessment process again, but the year will also bring other issues.

The data center dilemma centers first on a familiar mismatch of timescales. Utilities and their regulators tend to plan based on the small, incremental demand growth. But development and the power demand it generates move at ever-increasing digital speed.

Renewable energy industry analysts, representatives and environmental advocates say New York is in a better position than many others to make progress on its renewable energy goals during a second Trump administration.
