Assessments
The promise was to drive down energy costs by unleashing reliable baseload power. The evidence shows campaign material making this as a future commitment, plus advocacy and legislative activity related to baseload power and reliability. However, there is no evidence that Tiffany delivered the promised outcome or caused enacted policy that drove down energy costs. The cited congressional measures and PSC advocacy show serious effort but not completed delivery, so the correct outcome is never with an effort badge.
