In 2025, the U.S. is bracing for significant changes in its climate policy as President-elect Trump and a Republican Congress take office. While bipartisan support may preserve some provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act, discussions are underway about implementing carbon tariffs on imports to help level the playing field for American manufacturers.
Recent reports, including those published on April 7, 2025, hint at broader trade strategy shifts that could impact both renewable energy technology and domestic energy exports. These measures are part of a wider effort to reshape the nation’s economic and environmental outlook without completely abandoning previous climate initiatives.
