Shout out to NPR for a compelling piece on the implications of the OBBB based on Evolved's REPEAT analysis.
In states without policies to drive renewable energy, power prices could surge as federal tax incentives for clean energy disappear, according to Energy Innovation, a think tank.
Power prices are expected to soar under new tax cut and spending law

Breakingviews - Trump’s big bill shrinks America’s energy future
The rise of AI, robots and battery-powered cars has snapped a decade-plus lull in electricity demand. Yet a new spending law may curtail green energy construction equivalent to all US nuclear power today. Some $50 bln of extra bills by 2035 and a blow to high-tech industry await.

The One Big "Beautiful" Bill will increase energy costs for American households and businesses, increase taxes on new electricity supplies at a time of rapid demand growth, and substantially increase U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. That sounds like a big bad bill to me...

What happens if the U.S. repeals its clean energy policies?
New modeling from Evolved for the REPEAT Project shows the potential impact: higher emissions, rising household energy bills, and over $500B of investment at risk.

New cold climate heat pumps are so good, they don’t even blink at -20°F.
This could reshape winter peaks, retire gas lines, and unlock affordable electrification in places once considered too cold.
