Establishing the National Energy Dominance Council

What it means

Establishes a new National Energy Dominance Council within the White House to coordinate energy policy across government. Led by the Interior Secretary with Energy Secretary as vice chair, the council will develop strategies to increase all forms of American energy production.

Expected impact

• Potential boost for domestic energy production across all sectors (oil, gas, nuclear, coal, renewables)
• Streamlined permitting processes for energy infrastructure projects
• Increased focus on building energy infrastructure in underserved regions like New England and California
• Possible reduction in regulatory barriers for energy development
• Enhanced coordination between federal agencies on energy policy
• Greater emphasis on energy independence and reducing foreign energy imports
