Sustainable energy transition is being led by red states

The path forward
The global energy transition represents one of history’s largest capital reallocation opportunities. Market forces, not political mandates, increasingly drive this transformation. States with favorable resources and business climates will capture disproportionate investment regardless of partisan affiliation.
Conservative principles — property rights, free markets, energy independence — align naturally with renewable energy development when evaluated through economic rather than ideological lenses. The question isn’t whether America will participate in this transition but whether it will lead or follow. For investors, policymakers and business leaders, the economy has already provided the answer. The only remaining question is execution.
