Energy

Pat Meehan believes that America must have access to affordable sources of energy if we expect to be economically viable, maintain our standard of living and become less reliant on foreign sources of energy. 
 
These challenges will require commonsense approaches that promote energy-efficiency, the development of new technologies, and a better utilization of our domestically-available resources.
 
Pat knows that these solutions cannot be created through government-led programs that rely on higher taxes; rather, we should apply policies that will ignite American ingenuity and resourcefulness.
 
Pat’s approach favors long-term tax credits, new research and development incentives, and innovative financing mechanisms that will unleash America’s creative minds to develop the best solutions to our most pressing energy challenges.
 
Finding new ways to heat, cool and power our homes, modernize our grid, and electrify our vehicles is vital.  Our approach to developing these solutions is equally as important.
