Standard Summary
Comprehensive overview

This executive order establishes the National Energy Dominance Council within the Executive Office of the President. The council's purpose is to advise the President on strategies to increase domestic energy production across all sources—including fossil fuels, nuclear, renewables, and critical minerals—with the goal of achieving "energy dominance." This policy aims to boost economic growth, create jobs, reduce energy costs, enhance national security, and strengthen America's global energy leadership. The council will develop a national strategy focused on streamlining regulations, accelerating energy infrastructure projects, and promoting private sector investment.

  • 1Creates a new council chaired by the Secretary of the Interior and vice-chaired by the Secretary of Energy, with membership from over 15 federal agencies and White House offices.
  • 2Requires the council to develop a National Energy Dominance Strategy within 100 days, focusing on deregulation, permitting efficiency, and private sector collaboration.
  • 3Tasks the council with identifying barriers to energy production (e.g., regulatory costs) and recommending actions to rapidly increase energy infrastructure like pipelines and nuclear reactors.
  • 4Grants the Secretary of Interior a standing seat on the National Security Council, linking energy policy to national security decisions.
  • 5Clarifies that the order does not create new legal rights or override existing agency authorities.
