Budget bill will drive up energy prices, with thousands of energy jobs hanging in the balance
WASHINGTON, DC — Following the passage of H.R. 1 by the U.S. Senate, Advanced Energy United President and CEO Heather O'Neill released the following statement:
"This bill will hit Americans hard, terminating credits that have helped families lower their energy and transportation costs, shrinking demand for American-made advanced energy technologies, and squeezing new domestic energy production at a time of rising demand and prices. While Senators have addressed some of the worst provisions from earlier versions – including the ill-conceived excise tax – a number of punitive measures remain. The advanced energy industry will endure, but the downstream effects of these rollbacks and punitive policies will be felt by American families and businesses for years to come.

WASHINGTON, DC — Ahead of a planned vote by the Senate on H.R. 1, national business association Advanced Energy United President and CEO Heather O'Neill released the following statement:

Trump Administration move would dismantle cost-effective safeguards for the power sector
WASHINGTON, DC — Today, in response to the Trump administration’s announced plans to repeal emissions regulations from existing coal-fired power plants and new gas plants, Advanced Energy United President and CEO Heather O’Neill issued the following statement:
“Businesses need certainty. Reversing course on these regulations will unfortunately stall much needed investment and smart upgrades to our power system. America's aging fossil fuel power plants are a vulnerability to grid reliability and security. Continuing to invest in and depend on these plants into the future will lead to more stranded costs and price volatility for consumers. Utilities and power providers should be investing in more cost-effective ways to add new electricity and upgrade our power grid instead of doubling down on outdated infrastructure. State leaders know that winning the AI and manufacturing race will require energy providers to build out resources and power infrastructure that prioritizes affordability and minimizes stranded assets, maximizes efficiency and strengthens system reliability.”

Xcel Energy has proposed joining a smaller market with less clean energy, whichmeans higher costs for ratepayers
DENVER, CO — A new report from Aurora Energy Research assesses the potential for Public Service Company of Colorado (Xcel Energy) to join a regional electricity market in the West.
The report evaluates the economic benefits of different day-ahead market participation scenarios and found that Xcel Energy’s proposal to join the relatively small and disjointed Markets+, run by the Arkansas-based Southwest Power Pool (SPP), would increase both costs and greenhouse gas emissions compared with other options. Compared to Markets+, participating in the Extended Day-Ahead Market (EDAM) would yield between $4.2 and $13.2 million per year greater savings through 2060.
