EPA Moves to Repeal Biden Power Plant Climate Rules | Cato’s Travis Fisher Reacts
Following the EPA’s announcement that it plans to repeal Biden-era greenhouse gas rules for power plants and more fully reverse its 2009 endangerment finding, the Cato Institute’s energy and environmental policy expert Travis Fisher issued the following statement:

“The EPA is right to repeal the Biden administration’s power plant rule and clarify the limits of its authority under the Clean Air Act. The prior rule would have required many coal and natural gas plants to either shut down or build a massive carbon-capture industry at a scale that has never been adequately demonstrated.”
“At a time when electricity demand is growing rapidly, it is imperative that the EPA stop injecting policy uncertainty into the electricity industry. The US is struggling to meet rising demand in part because equipment suppliers were told for years that the federal government was hellbent on phasing out the use of coal and natural gas to generate electricity.”
“Congress never enacted a ban—explicit or implicit—on using hydrocarbon fuels in the power sector. The Supreme Court’s decision in West Virginia v. EPA reinforced the limits on EPA’s ability to craft regulations involving major policy questions without clear authorization from Congress. The EPA does not have clear authorization from lawmakers to regulate greenhouse gases (GHGs) under the Clean Air Act.”
“This fight will continue in the courts, and I expect it to culminate in the Supreme Court clarifying that the major policy question of whether to limit GHG emissions from power plants rests with Congress, not the executive branch. Until then, investments in America’s electricity sector will remain subject to the whims of the executive branch, which is an untenable position that imposes significant costs on American families and businesses.”
