FT News Briefing · Borrowing costs hit multi-decade highs · 19 Aug 2026 podcast

US President Donald Trump has spent his second term cracking down on renewable energy.

But that effort has produced some surprising results.

2026 is on track to be a record year for building these types of projects.

That's according to data from SP Global Energy.

Here to tell us why is the FT's Martha Muir.

Hi, Martha.

Hey Sonia, how's it going?

It's going well.

So tell me more about what Trump has done to try to slow down green energy during his second term.

So given all this interference, why are we seeing this surge in renewables this year?

Is the rise in green energy projects even across the industry, or are there parts of the space that are actually hurting from Trump's actions?

Martha, given all this, does the clean energy industry have a strong future in the US?

Martha Muir is the FT's US energy reporter.

Thanks, Martha.

Thanks, Sonya.
