In today’s episode, Bonner Cohen, senior fellow at the National Center for Public Policy Research, discusses the shifting landscape of green energy in America.
Cohen explores how the rapid push toward renewable energy—while rooted in good intentions—may be creating new vulnerabilities, including rising costs and a less stable power grid. “That is exactly what we recently saw happen in Spain, when all of a sudden ... the electricity went out ... it was a wake-up call, because that was a preview of coming attractions,” he says.
He also examines the global supply chain behind green technology, with a focus on China’s dominant role in producing solar panels and rare earth materials. For Cohen, this raises important questions about long-term U.S. energy independence and national security.
