SEIA has issued the following statement on the new directive from the Department of the Interior adding onerous review procedures for energy projects
“At a time when energy demand is skyrocketing, adding more layers of bureaucracy and red tape for energy projects at the Interior Department is exactly the wrong approach. Solar and storage is one of the only technologies available right now to meet the demand from AI, datacenters, and American innovation. There’s no question this directive is going to make it harder to maintain our global AI leadership and achieve energy independence here at home. It is deeply unfortunate that this administration’s energy policy continues to favor specific technologies rather than advance true American energy dominance.”
