The Northeast region of the United States includes the states of West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York, as well as the entirety of New England, which is made up of Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. The Northeast is an important region for fossil fuel production especially for […]
New Mexico plays a vital role in American energy production, providing a substantial amount of oil and gas from a comparatively smaller population than its neighbor, the number one oil-producing state, Texas. Accounting for an astounding 13.3% of all U.S. crude oil production in 2022, and increasing to an even 14% in 2023, due to […]
With an already unapologetic track record of anti-fossil fuel rhetoric, having blatantly said and famously backtracked on the idea that the United States should ban hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking,” the American people should expect that any energy policies from a Harris presidency would result in higher energy prices across the board and a suicidal effort […]
The Biden administration finalized national efficiency rules for residential gas furnaces, which will require non-weatherized gas furnaces and those used in mobile homes to achieve a 95 percent annual fuel utilization efficiency standard by late 2028. That is, manufacturers would only be allowed to sell furnaces that convert at least 95 percent of fuel into heat. The […]
The Biden administration is proposing to tighten energy efficiency standards for new residential water heaters–the second-largest energy-using appliances in most households. Heating and cooling are the largest residential use of energy with water heating accounting for about 13 percent of both annual residential energy use and consumer utility costs. If finalized, the proposal would take […]

EPA’s proposed power plant rule hits coal plants particularly hard since they would need an extremely expensive technology that is not yet commercial to allow coal plants to generate electricity in the United States. But, the new proposed rule would also wreak havoc on natural gas plants. Biden’s 681-page Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed rule […]
New York will become the first state to pass a law banning natural-gas and other fossil-fuel hookups in new buildings on its way to meeting President Biden’s net zero carbon goals and the state’s own targets for greenhouse-gas reduction. The New York State Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act, passed in 2019, calls for a reduction in economy-wide […]

AEA’s sister organization, The Institute for Energy Research, has released a new report comparing the environmental quality of the major oil-producing countries. For many years there has been a political movement centered in North America and Europe seeking to halt oil and gas production in the countries of those regions. Proponents claim this effort is […]
