The Changes Signal a Clear Turning Point in U.S. Energy Policy, with the Trump Administration Resuming Prioritization of Oil Exploration Over Renewable Energy.

The Trump administration began the process to revoke a regulation from the Biden administration that reduced fees charged for renewable energy projects on public lands. At the same time, it announced measures to expedite oil and gas exploration leases.

End of Incentives for Renewable Energy on Public Lands

The U.S. Department of the Interior revealed on Tuesday (13) plans to annul a rule implemented by Joe Biden in 2024 that cut fees charged for renewable energy projects installed on federal lands by about 80%.

The rule aimed to attract investments to the sector and facilitate developers’ access to clean energy infrastructure.

In addition to reviewing fees for renewable energy, the Trump administration also proposed updating a rule aimed at oil and gas exploration.

The intention is to streamline the leasing process for public lands, promoting auctions more quickly and with less bureaucracy.

“Under President Trump’s leadership, we are ending delays and bureaucratic hurdles that have long hindered the expansion of American energy production,” said Adam Suess, Acting Assistant Secretary for Land and Minerals Management.

This initiative is part of a broader package of measures aimed at U.S. energy security and reducing energy costs, prioritizing traditional sources like oil and natural gas.
