Energy Markets & Governance

Energy markets are in flux as new energy production and delivery methods alter global supply chains, while economic growth and new desires for energy efficiency change demand in different parts of the world. Policy makers will need to be able to interpret these shifts in the energy market and build new frameworks to manage energy uncertainty.

Election 2020: What’s at stake for energy policy?

By David L. Goldwyn and Andrea Clabough

As the US presidential election in November 2020 draws nearer, the energy policy platforms—including domestic energy, climate change, foreign, and trade policies—from the Democratic candidates, as well as the energy policies of a potential second Trump Administration, have become increasingly clear. The competing visions of a Republican and a Democratic administration could hardly be more disparate, and industry and external stakeholders should prepare for a volatile outlook regardless of the outcome in November 2020—what are the salient energy policies under the two scenarios and how will they address the deep and entrenched energy challenges that face the United States?

And how can this be done while simultaneously increasing European energy security and opportunities for transatlantic cooperation?
