Trump pledges to defend electricity rates

U.S. President Donald Trump has pledged to finance and build an energy infrastructure capable of meeting the growing demand for electricity driven by the expansion of data centers related to artificial intelligence, while also protecting consumers from rising bills. Electricity prices for households are expected to increase by 5.1% in 2026 and 2.4% in 2027, despite criticisms and forecasts of higher costs due to the increasing energy demand from data centers. Currently, this demand is doubling capacity market fees and accounts for nearly 40% of consumers' monthly bill charges. The pledge has faced criticism for lacking mandatory mechanisms, while some experts emphasize the sector's essential role in critical services such as healthcare and digital education. The debate continues over its impact on electricity prices and energy costs in the United States.
