Wow, forcing states to continue burning fossil fuels to power energy generators in Indiana and other state well past their retirement dates is not very forward-looking. Given the mindset of the Trump administration, it looks more like a pay-off to the coal and oil industries. Trump, in his first term, repealed the EPA’s 2009 Greenhouse Gas Endangerment Finding and the rescission of vehicle emissions standards. Since re-taking office in January 2024, Trump has slashed a quarter of the EPA’s workforce. And what has Congress said about all of this? Crickets…
I would guess this move is to insure we still have power sources when over demand of electricity comes to fruition. More like a continuation and back up plan for the overall grid. Between the temperatures and data centers, etc., our grid can’t wait too long to keep us alive and functional. New power technologies are still a decade or more away, and some old fashioned insurance is better than absolute failures of our current grid and sources.
We should also support the VCR Repair and Beeper industries. More forward thinking!
An old, dirty, corrupt, and unreliable industry being propped up by an old, dirty, corrupt, and unreliable President and GOP. The shoe certainly fits. The entire coal industry employs a workforce that is half the size of Muncie. What a waste.
