Friday marked the 25th anniversary of 9/11. Like many Americans, I can remember exactly where I was when I learned about the attacks. We remember the lives that were lost, but we also remember the heroes who emerged in the aftermath. What is sometimes overlooked is that for many first responders, the story of 9/11 did not end in 2001.
Twenty-five years later, many continue to battle cancers and other illnesses linked to toxic exposure from their service. This week, I read two powerful stories: one by NBC News about former FBI agent Jack Hess, who responded to the Pentagon and later died from a 9/11-related cancer. The second by ABC News about former FBI agent Jeffrey Miller, who is battling cancer linked to his exposure while advocating for fellow responders. Their stories are a sobering reminder that the costs of that day are still being paid, and that our obligation to support those who answered the call remains as important as ever.
I encourage you to take a few minutes to read both pieces. They are powerful reminders of the enduring legacy of service and sacrifice that followed 9/11. The gravity of moment was captured for me on Friday as I crossed The George Washington Bridge into the city:
We remember, we reflect, we honor.
There is a lot of action this week with Congress in town for its final sessions prior to the midterm elections and Nation Clean Energy Week events stacked up. Major action on NCEW starts tomorrow and Wednesday with the Policy Symposium where Congressional advocates, DOE’s Alex Fitzsimmons and industry leaders all discuss the current state of clean energy action and where the agenda may be headed with the political clouds/opportunities on the horizon with the big annual dinner on Thursday evening.
Also, on Thursday, AGA releases its annual Winter Fuel Outlook for natural gas, an update you will not want to miss given our current infrastructure challenges and power needs.
The Administration action starts today in Houston with the G20 Energy Ministerial hosted by Energy Secretary Chris Wright. It is a busy agenda with the Iran conflict still roiling global energy markets and concerns about critical minerals. On minerals, SAFE’s Abby Hunter will be in Houston and is a great expert on topic. EPA is also jumping in too: it is expected to roll out the long-awaited 111 Rule finalization announcement this afternoon. Scott Segal and/or Jeff Holmstead should be ready to discuss for background, context and quotes.
In its last full bicameral week prior to November (the House heads for the campaign trail on Friday), there will be significant energy action with the Full House expected to vote as soon as tomorrow on ratepayer protection legislation. We also expect to see a vote on Russian sanctions legislation recently passed by the Senate and will also take up several bills aimed at strengthening the grid and critical mineral supply chains,
Committees this week will be digging into nuclear fuel questions (House Energy tomorrow) and Energy Policy Act reforms (Senate Energy Wed) featuring DOE’s Fitzsimmons. Also on Wednesday, House Judiciary will mark up Rep Hariet Hagerman legislation aimed at limiting climate litigation. We have excellent resources on the topic with my colleagues Jeff Holmstead and Scott Segal, as well as our former colleague Liam Donovan.
There are also a number of good energy events outside of the Clean Energy Week action. Tomorrow, Axios holds a discussion on electricity in transition looking at current challenges and future power. Then on Wednesday, our friend and former Bloomberg media personality Kevin Cirilli hosts former AG Bob Barr and experts at the Press Club to discuss the upcoming SCOTUS arguments in Suncor climate litigation case. Also Wednesday, SAFE holds a webinar focused on President Trump recent Grid Executive Order focused on securing the US bulk power system. On Thursday, the Daily Caller hosts an Energy Forum with Secretary Wright and finally on Friday, Wright again headlines an Africa critical minerals discussion at CSIS.
Next to be outdone, many of us will also head to NY next week for Climate Week NYC alongside the UN General Assembly meeting. There will be a ton of good events slated which I have sorted through so you don’t have to.
Roughly 45 days to the midterm elections. Yesterday, I was talking data center siting on NPR’s Weekend Edition Sunday with our old friend Ayesha Roscoe. Thursday, I will make a stop on the Julie Mason show to talk politics and energy, and I expect my conversation with Volts Podcast host Dave Roberts to also drop this week as well. Stayed tuned for details.
I hope you had a chance to watch some of the tennis from NY because it was amazing. Demetri Zverev overpowered American Ben Shelton in yesterday’s Men’s Final, while Elena Rybakina used a big serve and a solid return game to prevent Ariana Sabalenka from winning a third straight US Open women’s title, grabbing World #1 spot from Sabalenka as well.
Emmy Awards tonight from the Peacock Theater in LA. Look for a few trips to the stage for The Pitt and Noah Wylie. Looking forward to the special tribute to the classic show, Charlie’s Angels. Call with questions.
Best,

FRANKLY SPOKEN
“They are swinging from the fences to try to prevent any administration from regulating one of the largest sources of emission for the United States.”
Carrie Jenks, the executive director of the Environmental & Energy Law Program at Harvard Law School to the New York Times in a story regarding EPA actions to limit GHG regulations.
ON THE PODCAST
NPR Weekend Edition Talks Data Centers – NPR’s Ayesha Rascoe spoke with environmentalist Bill McKibben and me for yesterday’s Weekend Edition Sunday show looking at opposition to industrial development projects like natural gas drilling and pipelines and data centers. Of course, I tied together much of my experience siting projects including renewables. Check out the 11-minute Segment HERE.
POLITICO’s JMart Join UT Gov. Spencer Cox – POLITICO’s Jonathan Martin heads to Salt Lake City for an On The Road conversation with Utah Gov. Spencer Cox on his new book, Off Ramp, the forces driving America’s political divide and why Cox argues Trump is the result — not the cause — of the country’s deeper crisis.
FUN OPINIONS
Wynn: Focus on Energy Consumers – In an op-ed in the Baltimore Post Examiner, former House Energy Committee member Rep. Albert Wynn writes using the courts as a substitute for energy policy is a losing strategy when looking at the offshore wind lease buybacks. The lawsuits, like the political outrage, miss a much larger point. The real fight, the one with consequences for consumers, for grid reliability, for American competitiveness, is building a permitting system that doesn’t produce these situations in the first place. The argument for action has never been more concrete, or more expensive to ignore.
FROG BLOG
Chamber: LNG Pause Risked Major Economic Driver – In a Chamber blog post, Kendall Stephenson writes few industries have done more to strengthen America’s role in the global economy than liquefied natural gas (LNG). A new S&P Global Energy study sponsored by the U.S. Chamber shows what the U.S. would have sacrificed if the Biden Administration’s LNG pause had become permanent. It shows LNG has already contributed $515 billion to GDP to date, and the opportunity ahead is even larger. From 2025 to 2040, U.S. LNG is projected to contribute $1.4 trillion to GDP, support an average of 555,000 jobs annually, generate $206 billion in federal and state tax revenue, and drive $2.9 trillion in total revenues for U.S. businesses.
Global Diesel Crunch has No Easy Fix – In his Bloomberg Column, Javier Blas writes easing the global diesel crunch is harder than keeping planes in the air. In times of crisis, the oil industry delivers a perennial warning: “You can’t print barrels.” And if conjuring crude is implausible, delivering diesel out of thin air is even more impossible.
FUN FACTS
Greenhouse Gases by Sector: With today’s action by EPA on GHGs and Clean Air Act Section 111 changes, here is a chart of current GHGs by Sector (this is an Axios Chart, but a similar chart was in the New York Times):
Crude Oil Jumps: A renewed push by Yemen’s Houthis to disrupt Red Sea oil exports helped to push oil prices to their highest point since July. It went even higher this morning.
IN THE NEWS
Gevo Ahead of Schedule on Debottlenecking North Dakota Ethanol Plant – Gevo says continued progress on the debottlenecking initiative at its Gevo North Dakota facility in Richardton is ahead of schedule. The effort includes the successful commissioning of a new beer degassing system which will capture and sequester more CO₂. The debottlenecking will result in a 10-15% increase in GND output and returns and closely follows the successful commissioning of a steam turbine project in August.
The debottlenecking program is designed to enhance operating efficiency and increase production capacity at GND as the facility advances toward its targeted production capacity of approximately 75 million gallons per year. The project includes three primary upgrades:
- Addition of a third liquefaction tank to expand capacity and improve the yield of corn starch to sugars
- Addition of a fifth fermenter to increase fermentation residence time to enable the production of more ethanol and CO₂
- Installation of a beer degassing system to capture and sequester additional CO₂ from the ethanol process
The CO₂ beer degassing system is currently being commissioned, several weeks earlier than originally planned. This equipment will enable GND to increase CO₂ recovery, unlock distillation capacity and lower the facility CI score.
AFPM Pushes CRA Effort in Ad Campaign – The American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM) is launching a seven-figure ad campaign in the Beltway and in eight states urging Congress to act on the six California waivers transmitted by EPA under the Congressional Review Act (CRA). If passed, the CRA resolutions would effectively stop a series of California electrification mandates and red tape affecting passenger cars and trucks, manufacturers of lawn equipment, marine vessels, and the cost of consumer goods around the country.
IEA: Global Coal Grows Due to Iran Conflict – The International Energy Agency said global coal consumption is tracking toward a 1.2% rise in 2026 to reach a new record of 8.94 billion metric tons. IEA revised earlier predictions of a slight drop, and the Iran war is a big reason. Middle East gas limitations and high prices are prompting more coal use in Europe, Japan, Korea, China and some other markets compared to IEA’s pre-war outlook. In certain markets, coal is the main alternative to natural gas for power generation. As a result, higher natural gas prices could support coal demand in the electricity sector, which accounts for two-thirds of global coal consumption. In addition, a reassessment of energy strategies is leading some countries and industries to turn to coal, especially coal produced domestically, to reduce their exposure to gas market volatility.
Study Highlights Cost of Diesel Price Impacts – High gasoline prices are of major concern right now with voters approaching the November mid-terms. While there is significant uncertainty of where this heads in the fall with refiners output close to maxed, Chinese re-engaging in the global crude market and summer driving season over, one thing that is certainly a bigger problem for consumers, farmers and our supply chains is the cost of Diesel. Though diesel’s exact financial toll on the broader economy is not completely evident, a new study out late last week from the center-right American Action Forum says cost increases at the pump since the start of the Iran conflict have added about $34.8 billion in diesel fuel costs for commercial transportation through August. That will definitely translate to increases Iin prices throughout. Diesel prices are costs input that affects nearly every aspect of the supply. While I always recommend the usual energy analyst experts (Kevin Book, Bob McNally, Patrick DeHaam, Tom Kloza) for these specific questions about the impacts of high diesel prices in the economy since February, I also would highly recommend you connect with SAFE CEO Avery Ash. This type of economic impact is something he has been tracking long before he took the reins of SAFE at the end of last year. Given the AAF report and impact tracking by other like Brown University Iran War Cost Tracker ( https://iranwarcost.watson.brown.edu/), I would recommend connecting with Avery on for context, background and even on the record thoughts.
European See AC as More Important Than Climate Goals – In a report from the Institute for Energy Research, Europeans are telling pollsters that air conditioning is more important than reducing carbon dioxide emissions, as thousands have died during the heat waves this summer without adequate temperature control. 93% of US households have air conditioning, but percentages are much lower in Europe, with 63% in Italy having AC and only 11% in the UK. Adding air conditioning to homes and businesses means more electricity will be necessary at a time when Europe is pushing to electrify more aspects of its economy. More air conditioning would also require a stronger grid, but Europe has been pursuing climate policies that have made the grid less robust and more expensive. According to a poll of six countries conducted by the Guardian, 61% to 73% of those surveyed said air conditioning (AC) should be standard in new homes. The poll surveyed people in France, Germany, Italy, Poland, and Spain in mid-July and the U.K. in early August. The poll also found that 65% to 75% of those surveyed wanted easier approval for AC installation, and 52% to 66% supported subsidies to help homeowners with the economics. According to the Guardian, as temperatures approached or topped 104 degrees Fahrenheit, 30% to 52% of respondents said they feared for their household’s health, as thousands of deaths resulted from four European heatwaves this summer. More people favored expanding AC use (35% to 48%) than prioritizing reductions in carbon dioxide emissions (20% to 32%), though percentages varied by country, as noted below.
CA Tire Rules Increase Costs – The California Energy Commission has approved new rules for replacement tires, mandating that replacement tires are at least as energy efficient, on average, as tires sold on new vehicles. California officials, including Governor Newsom, claim the program will lower fuel costs for drivers, saving drivers $1 billion per year, while the tire industry believes the opposite—that tire costs will increase, exceeding $300 for a set of four tires, with little benefit from lower fuel costs. To lower gasoline and diesel prices, California should review the climate policies and fuel taxes that make it have the highest gas prices in the country. These policies invite energy unaffordability and drive businesses out of the state. All Americans should be concerned because California regulations sometimes become de facto national standards because of the size of California’s market.
