The American energy secretary Christopher Wright about when President Donald Trump’s agenda will unfold, oil production and the state of the American power grid.
The secretary of the American energy department has warned that the raster of the nation reaches its limit, and claims that decisions about Trump administration are actively preventing a disaster.
“In my department we have issued four emergency care in recent weeks to stop the closure of reliable factories so that we can keep the lights on and stop driving up electricity prices,” said secretary Chris Wright on “Mornings with Maria” Thursday,
“We were on a course that was a train wreck,” he added. “We are now doing everything possible to wipe the nonsense away.”
Earlier this week, the energy department issued its latest emergency assignment to tackle a heat wave in the southeast, which means that schedule capacities run the risk of black -outs, so that the electric -generating units of certain areas can be used to the maximum.

Some of those important policy changes aimed at stimulating the grid are giving the energy department that has accelerated access to emergency assignments and regularly analyze the margins for electricity reserve in all American regions.
