The phase-out of subsidies is likely to lead to higher electricity bills for American households, with an estimated increase of $170–$280 per year by 2035. The transition also raises concerns about grid stability, as the U.S. grid increasingly relies on intermittent renewable energy sources like wind and solar. The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) has warned that 13 of 23 assessment areas face elevated or high risks of supply shortfalls over the next decade. Additionally, the costs of integrating renewable energy into the grid, including transmission and capacity markets, are expected to rise, further burdening consumers.
