Lee Beaman has no apparent energy experience. But he’s Trump’s pick to help run TVA. Beaman would oversee TVA’s $12 billion budget, nuclear fleet, and long-term planning. A doozy of a thread 🧵

Alabama's policies on solar energy ownership are not pro-business. x.com/DSIREUSA/statu…

DDSIRE@DSIREUSA · Jul 9

The federal reconciliation bill imposes new restrictions on the residential solar tax credit, along with the ITC for leased/PPA systems, meaning tax credit availability will depend on ownership and financing structure. dsireusa.org/resources/deta… #policy #energypolicy

Imagine if companies set their own energy standards—this could happen if the Energy Star program is privatized. Let’s keep it public and accountable. Show your support with our new merch: lite.spr.ly/6006yl8I. Learn more: lite.spr.ly/6008yl80.

energyalabama's tweet card. With Energy Star on the chopping block and rollbacks planned for rules that save water and energy, here’s how your next appliances might be different.

It may be labeled a tax cut, but for EV drivers, it’s a step backward. Tucked inside the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” is a federal tax increase on electric vehicles. This is a major setback for consumers and Alabama’s growing EV industry. lite.spr.ly/6003Hf8N

energyalabama's tweet card. Republicans have touted the House-passed legislation as one of the largest tax cuts in the nation’s history. They’ve failed to mention this increase targeting electric and hybrid vehicle owners.
