The U.S. Supreme Court on June 8 ruled that an energy trade association may pursue its challenge to Biden-era restrictions on consumer gas furnaces and commercial water heaters.

The high court’s decision comes after the Department of Energy, now under President Donald Trump, switched sides in the dispute and asked the court to undo an appellate court ruling that disallowed the lawsuit. The department is also currently in the process of revising the regulation that is in dispute.
