| Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| INCOME TAXES | 12. INCOME TAXES Taxable income or loss generated by us and our corporate subsidiaries is subject to U.S. federal and state corporate income tax in locations where they conduct business. A valuation allowance has been established against our net U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets, including net operating loss carryforwards. As a result, our income tax provision is primarily related to separate company state taxes, deferred taxes for tax deductible goodwill, and deferred taxes for certain long-lived assets. Our effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal tax rate of 21% primarily due to the tax benefit associated with the current year net loss of certain subsidiaries that has been offset by a corresponding increase in the valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets and the change in valuation allowance associated with the Long Ridge Energy & Power LLC assets held for sale. As of and for the six months ended June 30, 2026, we had not established a liability for uncertain tax positions as no such positions existed. In general, our tax returns and the tax returns of our corporate subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal, state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities. Generally, we are not subject to examination by taxing authorities for tax years prior to 2022. On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the U.S. The OBBBA includes significant changes to the U.S. federal tax law, such as an elective deduction for domestic research and experimental expenditures, and changes to interest expense limitations under Section 163(j). We have incorporated these amendments into the income tax provision which did not have a material impact on the Company’s effective tax rate.
