American hydropower is facing some challenges. Experts say we are past ‘peak dam,’ and the number of new dams being built every year has dwindled. Despite providing reliable, clean electricity, environmental opposition to new and existing dams persists.
While more approvals are necessary to begin operations, recommissioning nuclear power plants will play a vital role in meeting America’s growing energy demand and increasing nuclear energy capacity in the U.S.
Community-driven clean energy projects often address local problems more effectively than big corporations or governments can. In Taos, New Mexico, Kit Carson Electric Cooperative improved an unreliable power supply by installing microgrid-small-scale, self-sufficient power grids that generate electricity for a localized area.
The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) awarded Constellation Energy more than $1 billion in combined government contracts to provide nuclear power to 80 federal facilities representing more than 13 federal agencies.
The high cost of energy is perhaps the biggest challenge UK business faces in being globally competitive.

While the freight industry has opposed the Biden administration’s costly, unworkable regulations to reduce emissions from heavy-duty trucks, innovators are finding ways to clean up the nation’s existing fleet cost-effectively.
Four years ago in Glasgow, the world's governments and automakers committed to ending sales of gas-burning vehicles in leading markets by 2035. That deadline is now a decade away: let’s check in on how it’s going.
Amid the devastating wildfires scorching Los Angeles, the lack of effective fire prevention strategies is apparent. One prevention solution that receives little attention is grazing.
It’s a new year, and there’s enthusiasm in the air for the incoming Trump Administration. Opportunities abound to expand the U.S. economy and influence around the world, working to bring more peace and prosperity to people and parts of the planet that need it most.
As we head into a new administration, we provide some background on the men who could make up Trump’s National Energy Council and steer energy and environment policy from the cabinet level.
