The Trump administration's pursuit of "energy dominance” is upending the U.S. policy approach to energy investments and climate goals. A renewed emphasis on oil, gas and nuclear production has fueled efforts to slash regulations and expedite permits for pipelines and power plants. Meanwhile, cuts to clean energy subsidies are shaking up the market for renewables — even as U.S. allies, and some states, double down on wind and solar.


POLITICO’s Energy Summit will convene administration officials, lawmakers, industry executives and more for urgent conversations on what’s next for the nation's energy agenda.


Doors open at 8:15 a.m. ET.


A government-issued ID will be required for entry.
