AI Summary

A federal appeals court vacated a U.S. Department of Energy emergency order that had required the owners of a Michigan coal‑fired power plant to postpone its planned retirement. The court said the Department’s interpretation of “emergency” allowed frequent federal interventions that are not supported by the statute and could destabilize the energy market. The ruling held that the order usurped state authority over generating resources. The decision restores the state’s control over the plant’s retirement schedule.
