In an op-ed published in RealClearEnergy, CRES President Heather Reams addresses the recent debt ceiling package passed by the House, historically bipartisan support for clean energy tax credits, and the urgent need for permitting reform to reduce global emissions.
“As part of any fiscally responsible plan, we also have to create a business environment that encourages economic development and doesn’t punish American produced energy,” Reams writes. “Lasting permitting reform and targeted clean energy tax credits are one way to secure our energy independence, spur American innovation, and decrease our reliance on foreign countries.”
Reams emphasizes the importance of permitting reform in bolstering U.S. innovation and the responsible development of domestic energy resources, which is essential for America’s future competitiveness and security.
