The Trump effect: How Policy Changes Could Impact Offshore Wind, EVs, Solar

Douglas McIntyre and David Callaway discuss the likely impact of the upcoming Trump administration’s policies on renewable energy, highlighting offshore wind companies and EV manufacturers as potentially being hardest-hit. Offshore wind projects, particularly on the East Coast, face potential stalling or cancellation due to Trump’s opposition, while EVs will suffer from the elimination of subsidies and while solar power may slow down due to higher tariffs. However, projects tied to grid improvements may continue due to their benefits for Trump’s political base.
