The Trump administration has canceled a conditional $5 billion federal loan guarantee for the Grain Belt Express — a massive transmission line project designed to carry power across four Midwest states. POLITICO’s James Bikales breaks down why the administration pulled the plug, the political pressure behind the decision, and how it impacts America’s power grid and push for artificial intelligence moving forward. Plus, Norwegian energy company Equinor says it’s taking a nearly 1 billion dollar hit on its U.S. offshore wind projects.
