Ready to invoke emergency powers is the president-elect of the United States, as part of his plan to release domestic energy production, while seeking to overthrow President Joe Biden’s actions to combat climate change, Bloomberg intelligence reported. This move will be part of a series of actions Trump will take – starting a few hours after today (20.1.25), to implement his election promises to strengthen U.S. domestic energy production. Donald Trump is preparing after his inauguration to impose policy changes that will allow the development of new oil and gas on federal land, while directing the overthrow of the climate regulations of the Biden era, said the people who asked not to be named due to the confidentiality of information. CORVERSE While many of the executive actions will just trigger a long regulatory process, they are going to touch the entire spectrum of the U.S. energy industry, from oil wells to car dealerships. They also underline Trump’s determination to redirect federal government policy behind oil and gas production, a sharp shift from Biden’s efforts to limit fossil fuels. It was not immediately clear how an urgent energy statement could be used, although a president can unlock special powers regarding the transportation of crude oil and use the authorities to direct changes in the mode of production and transmission of electricity. During the campaign, Trump promised he would declare a national state of emergency for energy, saying it was necessary to increase production and address increasing demand from the rapid adoption of artificial intelligence. A spokesman for Trump’s transition period did not respond immediately to a request for commentary, but the elected president himself nodded to the effort during statements to Capital One Arena on Sunday. CORVERSE “We will use emergency powers to allow countries and entrepreneurs and people with a lot of money to build large factories, artificial intelligence plants,” Trump said. “We need twice as much energy as we already have and in the end it will be more”. The declaration of national emergency allows the president to use up to 150 special powers normally intended to address hurricanes, terrorist attacks and other unforeseen events, according to a report by the Brennan Justice Centre.
