The passage of the Inflation Reduction Act in August 2022 seemed like a green light for long-awaited clean energy initiatives. But as James Coleman — an energy law professor at SMU Dallas points out — then reality set in. The $400 Billion to $1.2 Trillion set aside for our green energy dreams was stalled by cumbersome permitting processes to build power line infrastructure. It may take 10 to 15 years to get things up and running. Professor Coleman supplies sobering insights on the frustrations EVs face, and other energy enigmas: like how will we ever develop electrical power storage lasting more than 30 minutes? There's reason for optimism because of energy efforts in Texas and elsewhere in the country.
