As America stands on the brink of a major political transition, an unlikely synergy is apparent between President Biden’s ambitious investments in clean energy and the "America First" economic principles championed by Donald Trump. At first glance, these policies may seem at odds—Biden’s focus on climate action versus Trump’s advocacy for a return to protectionist economic policies. But a closer look reveals that both agendas are aligned in their commitment to safeguarding American jobs, bolstering domestic manufacturing, and strengthening global competitiveness. Trump’s economic vision centers on protecting American industries and reducing reliance on foreign goods; Biden’s clean energy investments also enable this, while positioning America to compete in the 21st century.
Regardless of the set of values upon which this moment is framed, the truth is clear: as nations worldwide seek energy abundance through domestic clean energy sectors, America must ensure that more of our dominant technology innovation is commercialized and built here in the United States. Choosing not to scale and deploy our innovations here means ceding tremendous economic power to China and other nations. Join us for this seminar! Register today!
