If any energy projects should be cancelled because they threaten national security it should be fossil fuel plants, since the US defense and intelligence communities have issued literally dozens of reports, over decades, consistently and clearly identifying fossil-fuel use and climate change as threats to national security and to the facilities and operations of the US military.
For more than fifty years, the US intelligence and defense communities have worked to understand the threats to national and international security from a range of environmental factors, including pollution, population, water and energy resources, and the accelerating impacts of climate change. These assessments have concluded that environmental threats from fossil fuels will both increase the potential for violence, conflict, and war, and have growing impacts on US military forces and infrastructure.
Because Trumpism is seen as unstable and of dubious logevity, there’s not an enormous rush to build defunct factories for meeting energy demand under inefficient mediums. You’re never going to see another newly built coal plant. Gas plants aren’t coming online any faster, with the specter of Peak NGLs on the horizon. Solar and Wind are the future purely because of their low cost, long term profitability, and rapid ROI.
Delaying these projects when fossil fuel usage is already dropping (gasoline is falling to $2/gal levels not seen since the COVID crash) means starving the electricity hungry digital economy purely out of spite.
