Natural gas got an “A” grade, followed by nuclear, which got a “B+”. Wind and solar energy came in last, each receiving “F” grades, according to the study.

The Biden Administration’s January action – with no firm end date in sight – has put the future of the country’s LNG infrastructure in a state of disarray and put our allies’ energy future at risk.

Gov. Josh Shapiro unveiled a plan to fight climate change Wednesday, saying he will back legislation to make power plant owners in Pennsylvania pay for their planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions and require utilities in the nation's third-biggest power-producer to buy more electricity from renewable sources. 

A recently conducted statewide Pennsylvania poll identified 58 percent of Pennsylvania voters oppose President Joe Biden’s liquefied natural gas (LNG) export moratorium after learning more about it with 41 percent less likely to vote for him because of it.

Federal Register published a notice that the EPA OOOOb/OOOOc regulations (Standards of Performance for New, Reconstructed, and Modified Sources and Emissions Guidelines for Existing Sources: Oil and Natural Gas Sector Climate Review) would be published on March 8 more than three months after the Biden administration announced it with fanfare.

America’s oil and natural gas producers are innovating to produce more oil and gas than ever while generating less emissions and bringing reliable, affordable energy to Americans and our global allies.

PIOGA's 2024 Spring Meeting - ‘Climate, Commodities and Chaos – Threats to a Strong U.S. Energy Game Plan' - will be held April 18th at Rivers Casino - Pittsburgh. Registration is now open!

January’s Just the Facts focuses on the vital energy supplies the Commonwealth’s conventional natural gas industry provides to the regions they serve, along with the importance of Pennsylvania Grade Crude Oil – extracted from shallow conventional wells in the Appalachian Basin – in the production of valuable lubricants and hundreds of consumer items. These producers and the businesses that support their operations contribute significantly to Pennsylvania’s economy, provide invaluable energy to local communities and supply oil to refineries in the region that ship products to manufacturers around the country. Please take a few minutes to read about the importance of the state’s conventional industry and share it with colleagues, family and friends interested in energy issues.

A coal-fired power plant in Kansas that was slated for closure will remain open after all to provide needed power for, wait for it: a new electric vehicle (EV) battery factory producing "clean" energy storage products.
