Trump bans foreign power-grid systems again, declares national emergency, targets Chinese equipment
U.S. President Donald Trump again barred the import, installation and use of foreign-made large-scale power systems used on the U.S. power grid. He declared a national emergency and signed an executive order blocking Americans and U.S. companies from buying, importing, transferring or installing systems judged a national security risk. The move covers hardware and software and gives the Energy Department key authority. The administration must draft implementing rules within 120 days.
