However, if SCOTUS allows it to stand, reversing course on Biden v. Nebraska, its broad wording will get interesting.

«Facilitate [...] domestic energy resources [...] Federal eminent domain authorities or authorities afforded under the Defense Production Act» also applies to power grid expansion (e.g. under IRA) and wind/solar power permits.
Carbon capture more costly than switching to renewables, researchers find
「 Annual energy costs, the authors concluded, would decline by nearly 60%. Hundreds of millions of illnesses and 5 million deaths per year related to air pollution from energy—whether from woodburning cookstoves and kerosene lamps or from gas-fired power stations—would be avoided 」

The GuardianFossil propaganda
Reuters does propaganda in such a way, I can't even be mad at them:
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/feb/08/baltic-states-leave-russian-power-grid-in-closer-eu-integration
