Washington, D.C. (November 7, 2024) — The Clean Energy Buyers Association (CEBA) issued the following statement from CEBA CEO Rich Powell after the 2024 U.S. elections:

CEBA looks forward to working with the Trump administration and leaders of the new Congress to seize this moment of incredible economic opportunity now and in the years ahead.

CEBA’s more than 400 members represent the most dynamic and innovative industries that are driving unprecedented economic growth, from reshoring manufacturing, domestic oil and gas production, industrial electrification, and the rapidly increasing system needs of a data-driven economy.

U.S. electricity demand is expected to nearly double by 2030, and CEBA’s members, representing more than $20 trillion in market cap, are investing billions to cost-effectively meet this need. To grow and innovate, our members need affordable, reliable, and clean energy. CEBA’s members support and are deploying carbon-free energy in all forms: nuclear, hydropower, solar, geothermal, wind, and CCS.

CEBA is committed to working with the new administration and other elected officials to accelerate corporate clean energy buying, remove deployment barriers, and establish market structures that spur new clean energy generation and help maintain a reliable, affordable, and modern grid.
