Energy Secretary Chris Wright explains how the Trump administration is rapidly tracking the energy projects and to bring back the general knowledge to the rules on equipment on the Fox business: to resume America.
The Energy Department of Trump Administration (DOE) released a report on Monday, which currently received scheduled retirement Energy -generating facilities Blackouts may increase by the end of this decade, coupled with delay in bringing new power sources online.
The DOE report found that with approximately 104 gW of the retired energy-generating capacity by 2030, the power outage can see a significant growth if that capacity is not replaced in a timely manner. It is estimated that annual outage hours can increase by single digits today. Today may be more than 800 hours per year.
The agency said that while the 104 GW power generation is scheduled to retire, it is to be replaced by 209 GW new capacity by 2030 – although only 22 GW only comes from the sources of the Beselode generation. It states that even with the perception of retirement without any retirement, the risk of outage in some areas increases more than 3 times.
“This report confirms what we already know: the United States cannot take the risk of continuing an unstable and dangerous path of energy subtraction, which forces the baselode power sources such as coal and natural gas,” said Secretary Chris Wright said in a statement.

The report states that electricity demand is increasing due to energy-intensive construction. artificial intelligence (AI) data center with advanced manufacturing facilities.
“In the coming years, the US re -evaluation and the AI race will need a large supply of clock, reliable and uninterrupted power,” Wright said.
He said, “President Trump’s administration is committed to advancing the strategy of energy joint, and supports all kinds of energy that are inexpensive, reliable and safe,” he said. “If we are going to maintain light, win the AI race, and power prices remain from skyrocketing, the United States will have to highlight American energy.”

The DOE stated that its previous peak-hour tests to evaluate the adequacy of energy resources “are not sufficiently responsible for the growing dependence on the neighboring grid.”
It states that “modern methods of evaluating resource adequacy need to include frequency, magnitude, and power outage duration, especially peak loads go beyond analyzing time period, and develop integrated models to enable proper analysis of increasing dependence on the neighboring grid.”
