US Supreme Court allows DOGE broad access to Social Security data
By John Kruzel WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday permitted the Department of Government Efficiency, a key player in President Donald Trump's drive to slash the federal workforce, broad access to personal information on millions of Americans in Social Security Administration data systems while a legal challenge plays out. At the request of the Justice Department, the justices put on hold Maryland-based U.S. District Judge Ellen Hollander's order that had largely blocked DOGE's access to "personally identifiable information" in data such as medical and financial records while litigation proceeds in a lower court. Hollander found that allowing DOGE unfettered access likely would violate a federal privacy law. The court's brief, unsigned order did not provide a rationale for siding with DOGE. The court has a 6-3 conservative majority. Its three liberal justices dissented from the order. DOGE swept through federal agencies as part of the Republican president's effort, spearheaded by billionaire Elon Musk, to eliminate federal jobs, downsize and reshape the U.S. government and root out what they see as wasteful spending. Musk formally ended his government work on May 30. Two labor unions and an advocacy group sued to stop DOGE from accessing sensitive data at the Social Security Administration, or SSA, including Social Security numbers for Americans, bank account data, tax information, earnings history and immigration records. The agency is a major provider of government benefits, sending checks each month to more than 70 million recipients including retirees and disabled Americans. In their lawsuit, the plaintiffs argued that the Social Security Administration had been "ransacked" and that DOGE members had been installed without proper vetting or training and demanded access to some of the agency's most sensitive data systems. Hollander in an April 17 ruling found that DOGE had failed to explain why its stated mission required "unprecedented, unfettered access to virtually SSA's entire data systems." "For some 90 years, SSA has been guided by the foundational principle of an expectation of privacy with respect to its records," Hollander wrote. "This case exposes a wide fissure in the foundation." Hollander issued a preliminary injunction that prohibited DOGE staffers and anyone working with them from accessing data containing personal information, with only narrow exceptions. The judge's ruling does allow DOGE affiliates to access data that has been stripped of private information as long as those seeking access have gone through the proper training and passed background checks. Hollander also ordered DOGE affiliates to "disgorge and delete" any personal information already in their possession. The Richmond, Virginia-based 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in a 9-6 vote declined on April 30 to pause Hollander's block on DOGE's unlimited access to Social Security Administration records. Justice Department lawyers in their Supreme Court filing characterized Hollander's order as judicial overreach. "The district court is forcing the executive branch to stop employees charged with modernizing government information systems from accessing the data in those systems because, in the court's judgment, those employees do not 'need' such access," they wrote. The six dissenting judges wrote that the case should have been treated the same as one in which 4th Circuit panel ruled 2-1 to allow DOGE to access data at the U.S. Treasury and Education Departments and the Office of Personnel Management. In a concurring opinion, seven judges who ruled against DOGE wrote that the case involving Social Security data was "substantially stronger" with "vastly greater stakes," citing "detailed and profoundly sensitive Social Security records," such as family court and school records of children, mental health treatment records and credit card information.

Enfinity Global sells minority stakes in two BESS projects
Enfinity Global has divested 49% of its interest in two significant battery energy storage system (BESS) projects, with a combined capacity of 380MW, to Daiwa Energy & Infrastructure. The projects, located in the US and Italy, will enhance grid resilience and meet increasing power demands. The US-based project is situated in the Houston zone of the Electric Reliability Council of Texas area and has a 250MW BESS with a two-hour duration and 500 megawatt hours (MWh) capacity. Located in the Veneto region, the Italian project comprises a 130MW BESS with a four-hour duration and 520MWh capacity. Operations for both projects will commence by 2027. Enfinity Global maintains a controlling stake of 51% and is tasked with overseeing the development, construction and long-term asset management of both projects. Enfinity Global CEO Carlos Domenech stated: 'We are honoured to partner with Daiwa Energy & Infrastructure, one of Japan's leading financial institutions, to bring new investments to the USA and Italy. 'This is a win-win outcome and creates a demonstrable case study, strengthening the grid capabilities, accelerating powering of reliable competitive clean energy for customers, cross-border capital investments at attractive returns, and bringing the best global solutions by long-term responsible sponsors.' The partnership with Daiwa will bolster infrastructure to support data centres, AI and industrial electrification in both regions. Legal aspects of the transaction were managed by Winston & Strawn and DLA Piper for Enfinity Global, while Daiwa Energy & Infrastructure sought counsel from Orrick Herrington & Sutcliffe, Ensight Energy Consulting and Ernst & Young. Enfinity's global head of capital and general manager for the Americas Ricardo Diaz stated: 'We are pleased to be able to bring in Daiwa Energy & Infrastructure as a capital partner to our BESS projects in the US and Italy. Bringing long-term, like-minded investors as shareholders in our global portfolios is central to our capital formation strategy to accelerate growth and optimise returns.' In a related development, Enfinity Global secured a €100m ($112.2m) bond facility from Eiffel Investment Group to propel the deployment of energy storage and solar photovoltaic projects across Europe.
