唐纳德·特朗普总统周三将在白宫举办一场活动，宣传他所说的”洁净美丽煤炭”是美国最可靠且最经济的能源来源。
能源部长克里斯·赖特、环境保护局局长李·泽尔丁和内政部长道格·伯加姆将出席此次活动，活动定于美国东部标准时间下午4:00在白宫东厅开始。
白宫周二告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，多位州长和国会议员也受邀参加此次活动。
白宫发言人泰勒·罗杰斯对福克斯新闻数字频道表示：”美丽洁净的煤炭对于确保美国家庭和企业获得所需能源至关重要，同时还能降低全国的电力成本。特朗普总统的务实做法正在释放美国最可靠且最经济的能源，挽救数千个高薪岗位，并彻底改变乔·拜登政府造成的能源危机。”
白宫表示，此次活动将重点强调煤炭是”在高峰需求时段保障电力供应的可靠且经济的能源来源”。

总统将在活动期间签署”用美国美丽洁净煤炭发电舰队加强美国国防”行政命令——这是国防部从燃煤电厂采购电力的新举措。
该命令指示战争部长皮特·赫格塞斯与燃煤电厂签订电力采购协议，确保国防部获得可靠电力以加强美国电网。
活动期间，总统还将宣布能源部将向五座燃煤电厂拨款，用于在西弗吉尼亚州、俄亥俄州、北卡罗来纳州和肯塔基州重新启动并升级设施。
一位白宫官员告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，这将是”向全美燃煤电厂拨款的众多公告中的第一个”。

“自总统重返办公室以来，他对煤炭行业的不懈支持已见成效，”一位白宫官员向福克斯新闻数字频道透露，”煤炭产量上升，新矿场已被开采，现有矿场正在扩建，燃煤电厂继续运营，国家能源发展委员会正与几家公司合作建设新的燃煤发电装置——自2013年以来从未有过这样的情况。”
该官员引用了美国能源信息署的数据，该数据显示2025年上半年煤炭产量比2024年同期增加了1220万吨，增幅达5%。

活动期间，华盛顿煤炭俱乐部将授予特朗普”无可争议的煤炭冠军”称号。
此次活动是在特朗普政府1月恢复国家煤炭委员会之后举行的，该委员会由能源公司、公用事业、政府和部落利益相关者组成，政府称没有哪个行业对美国人生活的影响比煤炭更大。
该委员会由皮博迪能源公司首席执行官吉姆·格雷奇和Core自然资源公司董事长吉米·布洛克共同主持。该委员会是在乔·拜登总统解散这个有几十年历史的联盟四年后重新成立的。
此外，能源部宣布将投入6.25亿美元用于振兴美国煤炭行业，以响应特朗普总统关于”加强美国能源电网可靠性和安全性”的行政命令。

能源部的数据显示，西弗吉尼亚州煤炭行业在20世纪50年代曾雇佣10万名工人，到2022年这一数字仅为1.2万。
赖特办公室在一份声明中表示，政府通过重新启动该委员会等举措，已挽救了超过15吉瓦的燃煤电力。
2025年7月，能源部的一项分析发现，燃煤电厂的关闭将导致电网可靠性难以为继，同时到2030年还需要增加100吉瓦的高峰时段电力供应。

Trump to host ‘Clean Beautiful Coal’ event, calls it America’s most reliable energy

President Donald Trump is hosting an event at the White House Wednesday to tout how “Clean Beautiful Coal,” he says, is America’s most reliable and affordable energy source.
The president will be joined by Energy Secretary Chris Wright, Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin and Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum for Wednesday’s event, which is set to begin at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time in the White House’s East Room.
The White House told Fox News Digital Tuesday that a number of governors and members of Congress also were invited to attend the event.
“Beautiful, clean coal is critical to ensuring American families and businesses have the energy they need, while simultaneously driving down electricity costs across the country,” White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers told Fox News Digital. “President Trump’s commonsense approach is unleashing America’s most reliable and affordable energy source, saving thousands of good-paying jobs, and turning the page on Joe Biden’s energy crisis.”
The event is set to highlight how coal is a “reliable and affordable energy source that keeps the lights on during times of peak demand,” the White House said.

The president is set to sign the “Strengthen the United States National Defense with America’s Beautiful Clean Coal Power Generation Fleet” executive order Wednesday during the event — a new initiative for the Department of War to purchase electricity from coal-powered plants.
That order directs Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to enter into power purchasing agreements with coal-fired power plants to ensure that the Department of War has reliable power to strengthen the U.S. grid.
Also during the event, the president will announce that the Department of Energy will award funds to five coal plants to recommission and upgrade facilities in West Virginia, Ohio, North Carolina and Kentucky.
A White House official told Fox News Digital that it will be the first of “many more announcements” related to awarding funds to coal plants across the nation.

“Since the President has returned to office his relentless support for the coal industry has been felt,” a White House official told Fox News Digital. “Coal production is up, new mines have been (opened), existing mines are being expanded, coal plants are continuing to run, and NEDC is working with a few companies to help build new coal generation units — which hasn’t happened since 2013.”
The official pointed to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, which logged that during the first two quarters of 2025 an additional 12.2 million tons of coal were produced than in the first two quarters of 2024, representing a 5% increase.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt previewed the event, saying the president “will discuss how Clean Beautiful Coal is not only keeping the lights on but also driving down the cost of electricity across our country.”

Also during the event, the Washington Coal Club is set to name Trump the “Undisputed Champion of Coal.”
The event comes after the Trump administration, in January, reinstated the National Coal Council, comprised of dozens of stakeholders from energy firms, utilities, governmental and tribal interests, saying that no industry affects Americans’ lives more.
The council is now chaired by Peabody Energy CEO Jim Grech and Core Natural Resources Chairman Jimmy Brock. The council was reinstated four years after then-President Joe Biden dissolved the decades-old consortium.
It also comes after the Energy Department announced $625 million would be put toward reinvigorating the U.S. coal industry in response to Trump’s executive order calling for such, and another directive to “strengthen the reliability and security of the U.S. energy grid.”

Wright’s office said in a release that the administration has saved more than 15 gigawatts of coal-powered electricity, in part through relaunching the council.
In July 2025, a Department of Energy analysis found that the loss of coal-fired power plants would make grid reliability unsustainable, while also finding that 100 gigawatts more peak-hour supply is needed by 2030.
