The Sierra Club's latest Dirty Truth Report rated Mississippi's major investor-owned utilities poorly for their slow transition to clean energy, with Entergy Mississippi receiving an F for planning significant new gas plants despite retiring coal, and Mississippi Power improving to a C while still adding new gas capacity.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech, and 2 sources have reported it between 25 Sep 2026 and 26 Sep 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face pressure as utilities keep adding expensive gas plants while pledging renewables, opening a compliance and market access gap if your clean tech can beat gas economics. Mississippi's slow power shift warns you to target states with weak oversight ripe for disruption.
