Trump Pushes Coal with Defense Act

Trump Pushes Coal with Defense Act

Published 3 days, 23 hours ago
Description

Trump’s administration is poised to unleash a major coal revival via the Defense Production Act, injecting over $600 million into coal plants, terminals, and mining projects—despite coal’s near-collapse in U.S. electricity generation, now down to less than 20% from over half a decade ago. The push includes funding for 13 existing plants, matching grants in coal-heavy states, and a new export terminal in Northern California—all as the nation rapidly shifts toward natural gas and renewables.
