'Trump and Energy' special report series
Since the publication of the second edition in April, the Trump administration's second-term tariff strategy has shifted decisively from announcements to implementation. Through 12 August, a blend of tariff expansions, licensing carve-outs and temporary truces has underpinned the approach grounded in national security, industrial revival and fiscal opportunity via customs revenue.
The third edition focuses on:
- Impacts of sectoral tariffs on steel, aluminum, automobiles, and copper (NEW)
- Trade deals and tariffs, including a focus on additional tariffs announced on India and Brazil
- Leasing and royalty rate adjustments under the OBBBA and their impact on short-term outlooks
- Changes to tax credits for clean-energy sources, renewables, EVs, and hydrogen
