In this episode of the Energy Transitions Podcast, Pamela Largue speaks with Kenneth Irvin, Partner and Co-Chair of the Energy Practice Team at Sidley, to unpack the policy changes that have had the biggest impact domestically and abroad. Irvin considers the knock-on effect of declaring an energy emergency and explains why he believes there is still hope for renewable energy in the US.

  • The stand-out policies and executive orders passed in the first month of Trump's presidency;

  • The future outlook for US renewables energy markets;
  • The sentiment of US and European investors;
  • The importance of patient capital and a long term outlook to investing in the US;
