With the conclusion of Indiana’s 2026 legislative session, Hoosiers have reason to be proud of our state’s leadership on energy policy during this dynamic period of unprecedented energy demand. The legislature leaned into pragmatic, forward-looking solutions that balanced reliability, affordability, and innovation — all while reinforcing Indiana’s commitment to economic growth and building upon current law.

Energy is the foundation of Indiana’s economic future. It demands recognition of the unique challenges facing each community and a vision for what we want to become as a state. As we look ahead, continued engagement between the Braun Administration, policymakers, utilities, local leaders, and the business community is essential. But with the momentum built this session, Indiana is well-positioned to lead on energy – just as we’ve long led on manufacturing, innovation, and economic growth.
