Energy Realism last week focused on the ongoing string of Trump victories and how he can right all the energy wrongs of the previous guy. Chris Johnson got us started last week. President Trump’s first act after taking the oath of office for the second time was to declare that “the golden age of America begins right now.” Nothing will be more critical to fulfilling that promise than his agenda to achieve American energy dominance. Danny Ervin agrees, and there is much to fix thanks to the failures of Joe Biden and his legions of green dreamers. The U.S. is rapidly heading toward an electricity crisis. With skyrocketing demand driven by strategic industries—such as advanced manufacturing and AI-powered data centers—electricity needs are outpacing supply. Today's economy relies on a stable, affordable electricity supply available around the clock, regardless of weather conditions. However, baseload power plants are closing prematurely, and if this trend continues, disruptions in electricity supply may occur. Dan Brouillette makes clear that oil & gas juggernaut Alaska could lead the way. With President Trump back in office, there is a tangible shift in direction. In just his first few weeks, the administration acted decisively— signing an executive order designed to unlock Alaska’s “extraordinary resource potential” and appointing an Alaskan environmental commissioner to a pivotal EPA role.
