Donald Trump, during his inauguration speech.

Trump is back: Green energy is pushed aside as fossil fuels take priority in U.S. policy


Donald Trump has officially returned to the White House as the 47th President of the United States, beginning his second term with a bold commitment to shifting away from green energy initiatives. The inauguration, held inside the Capitol due to severe weather, was attended by world leaders and international personalities.

In his address, Trump made it clear that his second term would prioritize the rejection of the Green New Deal, the rollback of electric vehicle mandates, and a stronger push for fossil fuel extraction. With a clear focus on reducing energy costs and addressing inflation, Trump’s administration is set to take a much harder stance against renewable energy, which had gained significant traction during his absence from office.

"I am ordering every member of my cabinet to do everything in their power to defeat inflation and reduce energy costs quickly," Trump said. "The United States has more oil and natural gas than any other nation on the planet, and we are going to use it."

Trump's speech also included a direct promise to declare a national energy emergency, a move he framed as crucial to restoring America's energy independence. He reiterated his famous "Drill, baby, drill" mantra, signaling a sharp shift toward increased domestic oil and gas production, and pledged to revoke the electric vehicle mandate that had been seen as a key pillar of the green transition.

This speech aligns with Trump’s previously expressed opposition to offshore wind energy, continuing his stance against renewable sources like wind and solar, which he argues drive up costs for American consumers. "We will repeal the Green New Deal, and revoke the Electric Vehicles Mandate, saving our automotive workers," he declared, vowing to prioritize traditional industries and jobs over clean energy goals.

Trump’s aggressive energy policies, which include intensifying drilling on U.S. soil, underscore his administration's plan to bolster fossil fuel use and abandon much of the green energy agenda. As he said in his address: “America will once again be a manufacturing nation,” with fossil fuels at the heart of his strategy to lower costs and boost the economy.

The newly sworn-in president’s plans are set to reshape the country’s energy future by scaling back renewable energy investments and focusing heavily on oil, gas, and coal as key drivers of the U.S. economy in the years to come.
