Energy
The national conversation around energy is changing rapidly. As the United States has dramatically increased its production of hydrocarbons, the costs of renewable energy technologies have also declined sharply. We must now decide how to responsibly drive a transition toward a cleaner low-carbon energy mix while maintaining economic growth. The BPC Energy Team is focused on generating and advocating for pragmatic clean energy policies through engagement with a broad set of stakeholders and experts from diverse political perspectives.
