Getting Permitting Reform Right with Representative Susie Lee

In late 2025, permitting reform for energy projects became a major priority for Congress, and with good reason.

However, Congress’ permitting solutions failed to address one major hurdle for new electrons: the Administration’s regulatory slowdown of fast-to-build and cost-effective solar projects. Representative Susie Lee of Nevada sounded the alarm to her colleagues in Washington on this gap in the legislation, and she joins the Good Energy podcast as Congress continues to negotiate and perfect permitting reform legislation.
