ОБ ЭТОМ ЭПИЗОДЕ
The Trump administration has made energy one of its cornerstone policies, hoping to produce "energy dominance."
While Christopher Wright, the new energy secretary, has won plaudits from the energy world, details of how the president’s energy agenda will unfold are still sketchy. What is known and what can be expected will be examined at the next United States Energy Association virtual press briefing, which is set for Wednesday, Feb. 12, at 11 a.m. EST.
As usual, a panel of senior reporters who cover energy will question a panel of experts, this time on the president's energy plans. At these briefings, the questions are spontaneous as are follow-ups. Expert panelists are invited to interject their views, if these aren’t triggered by a question from a reporter.
Mark Menezes, president and CEO of the USEA, and deputy secretary of energy in the first Trump administration, will be on hand to share his knowledge.
The briefings are organized and moderated by journalist Llewellyn King and are conducted live on Zoom. They last a little over an hour, and recordings and transcripts are available afterwards on both the USEA and Energy Central websites.
Briefings are free and open to the press and the public, but registration is required.
