What happened

Energy Secretary Chris Wright joined a Hamm Institute for American Energy panel on April 24, 2025, according to the Department of Energy. Wright said, as he stated it, that the administration’s economic policies will lead to faster growth, which will increase demand for energy, and that the goal is increased supply alongside increased demand, but lower prices.

Wright said, as he stated it, that the administration does not dial in a specific price of energy, but that as prices drift lower, that is good for America.
