Alex Fitzsimmons writes in The Hill on the importance of a diverse clean energy portfolio.
- President Biden has recently invoked the Defense Production Act (DPA) to accelerate his clean energy goals.
- Relying on the DPA does little to reduce our dependence on China for the rare earth minerals that are needed to create clean energy generation.
- Instead of focusing on only a few sources of energy production, the administration should embrace an “all of the above” energy strategy that unleashes American innovation.
- Turning to a more diverse energy portfolio will reduce emissions, lessen our reliance on China, and create a more robust American economy.
“Congress and the Biden administration should embrace all forms of energy that can contribute to a resilient, secure and clean energy system. With smart solutions focused on building and exporting a diverse suite of technologies, the next decade of clean energy expansion can be America’s to seize.”
