What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Department of Energy is planning to spend nearly $2 billion to upgrade the nation's aging power grid. This funding will support 31 projects across 26 states, aiming to add over 23 gigawatts of electricity capacity—enough to power 16 million homes. Energy Secretary Chris Wright stated that the upgrades could improve power reliability and lower electricity costs for approximately 100 million Americans.
