AGP Executive Report
Last update: 4 hours agoRussian Diesel Deal: President Trump’s agreement to ease sanctions and bring Russian diesel to U.S. markets marks a sharp policy reversal. Energy experts say the shipments are unlikely to bring down prices quickly: diesel averaged about $6.28 a gallon Friday, after hitting a record $6.53, and high fuel costs are squeezing truckers. At least 16 trucking companies filed for bankruptcy in less than a month. Gulf Oil: Hurricane Isaias shut in 71% of U.S. Gulf oil production, adding another supply risk. Household Bills: Trump is considering suspending the federal gas tax, while North Carolina has suspended its state tax through Nov. 30. An Ohio solar co-op could save participating Duke Energy customers about $1,000 a year. Grid and Regulation: States are betting on virtual power plants to curb grid costs, while a coalition is suing the EPA over its repeal of power-plant emissions rules.
