Insights from Steven Shparber, Energy & Sustainability Member, and John Lushetsky, Senior Vice President of ML Strategies, were featured in Utility Dive around the 2025 outlook for federal energy-related agencies. The article discusses how relevant agencies will play key roles in the Trump administration's goals to cut energy costs and meet the nation’s fast-increasing power demand.

Steve says, “FERC will likely continue coordinating with states to get better visibility into the magnitude and location of where load is growing the most so that FERC-jurisdictional transmission planning processes can be optimized. This sounds simple and straightforward, but it is a very important and complicated undertaking.”

Relating to how the incoming administration has swiftly nominated candidates for top roles at the EPA, DOE, and Department of the Interior, John comments, "With the accelerated pace, the Trump administration is in a much better position to be able to move out on many of these [energy-related] things that they campaigned on on day one."
