WASHINGTON, Oct 24 (Reuters) - U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright on Friday issued an order that allows part of Talen's TLN.O oil-fired Wagner power plant in Maryland to stay open through the end of 2025, saying it would boost the reliability of the grid. President Donald Trump declared an "energy emergency" on the first day of his second term. But he has taken a slew of actions to slash tax breaks and other support for renewable energy and has favored fossil fuels.
