If past is prologue, while the second Trump administration is expected to take a number of actions that could lead to increased volatility with respect to renewable identification number ("RIN") prices just as the first did, there are signals that the administration may take a more deliberate approach this time to reduce shocks to the RIN market, all the more given the interest in supporting renewable fuel production as a domestic fuel source.

Oil prices climbed this week as OPEC+ committed to controlling supply while Trump continued his efforts to choke Iran's oil industry. Buoyed by Trump's continued pressure on Iran and OPEC+'s renewed efforts to send prices higher ahead of its April meeting by committing to additional overcompensation plans, ICE Brent is creeping back closer to the $75 per barrel mark, posting its second weekly gain.

Lengthy and complex permitting processes are a major obstacle to expanding renewable energy projects, often taking as long or longer than the actual construction. The effectiveness of Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs) in driving renewable energy growth varies significantly depending on the type, and there is a need for clearer definitions and transparency to prevent greenwashing.

The president said the moves were "necessary to advance the policy of the United States to restore common sense to the Federal Government and unleash the potential of American citizens." Joe Biden invoked the DPA - a cold-war era law introduced to encourage domestic production of strategically important products or materials - to cover solar modules and module components in June 2022 in an executive order which said the technologies were "industrial resources, materials, or critical technology items essential to the national defense." The decision gave the Department of Energy (DOE) the authority to use the DPA to support domestic manufacturing and deployment of solar PV products.
