Description
The Energy Department’s Loan Programs Office has only spent a fraction
of the $200 billion pot it could use to fund ambitious new energy
projects. POLITICO’s Kelsey Tamborrino breaks down why DOE’s LPO is
moving slowly and what would happen to the remaining money under a
second potential Donald Trump presidency. Plus, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore
says the Port of Baltimore could be fully functional by the end of May.
