The US Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act of 2026 proposes to accelerate permitting for energy projects including renewables and fossil fuels, but clean energy groups express concern it may favour oil and gas infrastructure over renewable energy deployment under the current administration.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Clean Energy, and 5 sources have reported it between 30 Sep 2026 and 5 Oct 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a regulatory shift that speeds up energy project approvals but may prioritise fossil fuels over renewables; act now to engage policymakers and secure early permits before fossil projects dominate the pipeline.
