The United States is a world leader in clean energy technology, jobs and in reducing carbon emissions. Natural gas is key to making this leadership possible. Natural gas is an affordable and reliable part of our nation’s energy supply, used by more than 180 million Americans and over 5.5 million businesses, both large and small. It accounts for nearly one-third of our country’s energy supply and, importantly, the United States has abundant reserves of natural gas both on- and offshore, strengthening our energy security—a stark contrast to countries that have turned their backs on natural gas, leaving them vulnerable to global chaos and volatile prices.

The energy demand curve across parts of the United States, including demand for natural gas, usually takes a dip in September as many end users turn off the air conditioners, open the windows to enjoy cooler temps and consider getting a pre-season maintenance check on their heating system before winter sets in.

Mountain Valley Pipeline is suing more than 40 people and two organizations that it says are unlawfully interfering with its efforts to complete a natural gas pipeline amid growing unrest.

FERC Commission Chairman Phillips delivered a blow to environmentalists by stating that natural gas is here to stay, rightly highlighting its role in the energy transition to both meet global demand while progressing toward shared climate goals.

The Shapiro Administration will adopt an updated Environmental Justice (EJ) Policy, which expands environmental safeguards throughout the Commonwealth, a milestone in updating a 20-year-old policy the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) has used to guide protections for communities most vulnerable to environmental challenges. Environmental justice areas make up 20 percent of the entire Commonwealth.

Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro has asked regional power grid operators to enhance the electricity system’s dependability—and he’s got ideas about how to do it. But his premises are flawed, and his suggestions misguided. Shapiro wants reliable power, yet he’s banking on unreliable sources to provide it. That approach isn’t just wrongheaded; it’s a recipe for failure.

A group of 28 House Democrats asked Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Secretary Kimberly Bose to deny a request from the developers of the Mountain Valley Pipeline to extend the project into North Carolina, arguing in a letter this week that its construction would pose serious climate and environmental risks to affected states.

August means one important thing for many families: time to get kids ready to go back to school. The month finds many people packing up their outdoor adventure or water gear – much of it derived from the processing of oil and natural gas – and trading it for new clothes and supplies for children to report to orientation and the first day of classes.

PJM officials recently testified that PJM will not have sufficient power to meet consumer demand if things continue on the current course. PJM said that 20 percent of its existing capacity would retire by 2030. Legislators from both states agreed during the meeting that regulating policies like the multistate Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI), overregulation by state agencies, and reliance on renewable energy sources will speed the collapse of the energy grid.

The Supreme Court on Thursday allowed construction to resume on a contested natural-gas pipeline that is being built through Virginia and West Virginia.
