PC party leader attends the protest in support of fishermen | SaltWire #newsupdate #newfoundlandHOUSTON -The U.S. government needs to streamline permitting for renewable energy projects, including development of power transmission infrastructure and grid connectivity, to support needed growth, executives said on Thursday at a conference in Houston.

Coben lamented that it is much harder to move through permitting processes in places like California than Texas. Hurdles around permitting have been discussed frequently among executives attending the annual CERAWeek energy conference in Houston Texas. Earlier in the week, U.S. Senator Joe Manchin told participants that permitting reform"will get done."
