US utilities want Trump, Republicans to save inflation act, Edison CEO says
"For EEI members, which include US and international investor-owned utilities such as AES, Edison International, Duke Energy and Southern Company, retaining IRA tax credits for energy storage, transmission, nuclear power, hydrogen, EVs and others are crucial for continued growth, Pizarro said. "
""It's really across the board." EEI members will spend the coming months reaching out to members on Capitol Hill, he said. "We'll be very active there, just explaining the benefits of the IRA," he said."
It shouldn't be too hard for the utilities to get enough Republicans in their back pocket to preserve the IRA. In the Senate, all they have to do is buy Lindsay Graham some shrimp and he'll be on board!
