On this episode of The Unregulated Podcast Tom Pyle and Mike McKenna discuss recent primary contests, Biden’s latest stories, and the EPA’s “not-a-ban” ban on gas powered vehicles. Links: American Energy Alliance · The Unregulated Podcast #174: Chop Choppy
WASHINGTON DC (03/20/2024) – Today, the Biden administration finalized a gas-powered vehicle ban that aims to remake the transportation sector and fundamentally upend the American way of life. The regulation mandates electric vehicle adoption by requiring 67 percent of new light-duty and 46 percent of new medium-duty vehicle sales to be EVs by 2032. It […]
WASHINGTON DC (03/20/2024) – As House Republicans bring a series of bills to the floor aimed at increasing domestic energy production and reducing energy costs for Americans, the Biden Administration moves another step closer this week to forcing the auto industry to shift exclusively to electric vehicles, another in the more than 200 actions the […]
In a concession to automakers and labor unions during an election year, the Biden administration plans to relax elements of its regulations to limit tailpipe emissions that are designed to get Americans to switch from gas-powered cars to electric vehicles. Biden’s EPA is planning to give automakers more time to ramp up sales of electric vehicles. The […]
A new threat to U.S. refining may be looming. A proposed Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rule on hydrofluoric-acid-based alkylation could spur a round of refinery closures as the cost of replacing hydrofluoric acid based alkylation with alternatives is extremely high. EPA is considering adding amendments to its Risk Management Program (RMP) regulation that could effectively eliminate the […]
WASHINGTON DC 12/6/23 – Today, the House passed H.R. 4468, the Choice in Automobile Retail Sales Act, by a vote of 221-197. This bill, introduced by Rep. Tim Walberg (R-MI), prevents the EPA from finalizing its proposed rule on federal vehicle emissions standards, which would require 70 percent of cars and trucks to be electric in less than 10 years. AEA President […]
EPA’s proposed power plant rule hits coal plants particularly hard since they would need an extremely expensive technology that is not yet commercial to allow coal plants to generate electricity in the United States. But, the new proposed rule would also wreak havoc on natural gas plants. Biden’s 681-page Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed rule […]
The Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) new emissions standards for vehicles require manufacturers to increase overall fuel efficiency by over 25 percent by 2026, effectively mandating that electric vehicles make up two-thirds of new car sales. In order for customers to buy electric vehicles, manufacturers will have to make them less expensive than internal combustion vehicles, which will […]
President Biden’s new rules for power plants that will be released soon would benefit carbon capture and sequestration technology by enabling coal and natural gas plants to meet the new proposed standards developed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). However, the EPA is lagging far behind on permits allowing for the construction of the new technology. The new […]
President Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is expected to announce limits on greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. If implemented, the proposed regulation would be the first time the federal government has restricted carbon dioxide emissions from existing power plants, as well as future plants. According to the regulation, almost all coal and gas-fired power plants would have to cut or capture nearly all […]
