Energy Regulation: Latest Developments, Policy Changes, Anticipated Agenda Under the New Administration

Senior Vice President John Lushetsky co-led a webinar sponsored by Strafford Publications on Energy Regulation: Latest Developments, Policy Changes, and the Anticipated Agenda Under the New Administration.

Following the 2024 election, which resulted in a second Trump administration and a Republican-controlled Congress, significant shifts in energy policies and priorities were anticipated. Counsel were encouraged to prepare to help clients navigate what were expected to be substantial policy and regulatory changes.

This webinar guided counsel through the expected changes under the new administration, including current regulations that were likely to be targeted for reversal.
The panel addressed anticipated policy shifts, regulatory updates, agency staffing changes, and enforcement priorities impacting energy law and regulation, including those related to renewable energy, domestic energy production, the Inflation Reduction Act, oil and gas extraction, nuclear energy, and more.

The panel discussed these and other key issues:

• Key energy policies proposed by the Trump administration with the greatest impact on energy clients
• Initiatives and regulations from the previous administration that were likely to be targeted for rollback
• The impact of legislative, regulatory, and agency changes on energy law
• Strategies to help clients navigate the changing legal landscape
