An increase in energy independence is seldom a bad thing. Particularly politically. You never hear about the French fretting over energy supply, do you? They may well be on to something.
The perverse effect to watch out for is that with increased energy independence by increased generating capacity, it would simply mean that consumption would go up in proportion to added capacity, and importation of energy would change not one whit, unless perhaps to decline as a percentage of the entire amount available.
