American energy abundance is needed to meet the ever-increasing demands of a growing American economy

On passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, Rich Powell, CEO of the Clean Energy Buyers Association (CEBA), today noted:

“The Clean Energy Buyers Association (CEBA) recognizes lawmakers for their hard work and dedication in advancing the One Big Beautiful Bill Act during a time of complex economic and energy challenges. We recognize the difficult decisions involved in balancing fiscal priorities with long-term national interests.

As the voice of the largest energy buyers in America, whose total demand is greater than any U.S. state and growing fast, we regret that the tax credits for solar and wind are being sunset at a difficult time when we need all energy options to support unprecedented electricity growth in America. We do acknowledge and appreciate the work of President Trump and Congress in expanding the critical policies needed for clean firm energy, such as nuclear, batteries, and geothermal, to support the next generation of carbon emissions-free energy resources.

America’s energy dominance depends on our ability to lead in the technologies of the future and to continue to invest in all forms of clean energy. We urge continued collaboration to ensure carbon emissions-free energy remains a central pillar of our national strategy.

CEBA and its members are excited about President Trump and congressional leaders’ commitment to turning to fundamental reforms to our national permitting system to dramatically speed up new projects. We stand ready to work with them to build an energy industry that enhances U.S. competitiveness, energy security, and economic growth.”
