Restoring Renewable Energy Parity Act

This bill would require the Secretary of Commerce to end a national security trade investigation into imported wind turbines and their parts. It would cancel ten listed executive orders, memoranda, and agency guidance documents on wind, solar, and other energy projects, bar federal funds from carrying them out, and bar reissuing similar documents unless a later act of Congress authorizes them. It would require the Secretary of Defense to sign certain pending mitigation agreements for wind, solar, and power line projects within 30 days. It would also let wind, solar, geothermal, and storage projects use a Fish and Wildlife Service permitting portal, treat multi-year grant continuation applications as granted if agencies do not respond within 60 days, and allow fiscal year 2026 and 2027 funds to be rescinded only through an appropriation act.
