  • Business executive Chris Wright was questioned before the Senate Energy and Natural Committee, chaired by Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, who opened the Wednesday hearing with harsh criticism for President Joe Biden's energy policies.

The article from Deseret.com discusses Utah Senator Mike Lee's stance on energy policy, particularly focusing on his support for solar energy and his broader views on energy independence. Senator Lee has been vocal about the need for a diversified energy portfolio that includes renewable sources like solar, while also emphasizing the importance of maintaining traditional energy sources such as coal, oil, and natural gas for reliability and economic reasons. He argues that an over-reliance on any single energy source could jeopardize national security and economic stability. Lee has pushed for policies that encourage innovation in solar technology to make it more efficient and cost-effective, while also advocating for less regulatory burden on all forms of energy production. His approach aims to balance environmental concerns with the practical needs of energy supply, reflecting a nuanced perspective on the energy debate in Utah and nationally.
