The hubbub about banning indoor gas stoves that Biden’s Commissioner of the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) suggested last month and which was poo-pooed by the White House, saying President Biden did not support the ban, continues. Now, Biden’s Department of Energy is setting energy efficiency standards for consumer cooking appliances that would ban most indoor gas stoves. […]
A Commissioner of President Biden’s Consumer Product Safety Commission (CSPC) wants a ban on indoor gas stoves. Richard Trumka Jr., a Biden commissioner on the CSPC, told Bloomberg the ban is justified because gas stoves increase respiratory problems such as asthma among children, which is a myth promoted by environmentalists whose real agenda is not to reduce asthma but to […]
Europeans are learning slowly. The Nord Stream 1 scare that Russia would not restart natural gas flowing in the pipeline after its planned annual maintenance has put Europeans, and particularly Germans who heat half their homes with gas and use it for electricity generation and in critical industrial applications, on edge. Russia is clearly using […]
On this episode of The Unregulated Podcast Tom Pyle and Mike McKenna discuss recent events at the White House, insights from the latest public opinion polls, and more. For first time ever, Europe imported more natural gas from US than Russia. Biden Approval Hits New Low Celebrating 40 years at The Washington Times Democrat Mayors […]
EIA’s Annual Energy Outlook 2022 reference case (which assumes current laws and regulations) projects that U.S. energy consumption will grow through 2050. According to the reference case, petroleum will retain the largest share of energy consumption throughout that period, followed by natural gas. Renewable energy is projected as the fastest-growing energy source through 2050. EIA […]
Toby Rice, who runs the U.S. largest natural gas producing company, Pittsburgh-based EQT, indicated that the United States could easily replace Russian natural gas supply in Europe. He estimated the United States has the potential to quadruple its gas output by 2030. What is needed to accomplish that is more natural gas pipelines and LNG export facilities […]
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s Natural Gas Pipeline Projects Tracker, in 2021, 7.44 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of interstate natural gas pipeline capacity was added in the United States. This was the lowest amount of added capacity since 2016. The vast majority of new interstate natural gas pipeline capacity was added […]
Based on a study of a paltry 53 homes in California, researchers with Oakland-based Physicians, Scientists and Engineers for Healthy Energy (PSEHE) and Stanford University estimated that stoves emit between 0.8 and 1.3 percent of the natural gas they consume as unburned methane with three-quarters of these emissions occurring when the devices are shut off, suggesting leaky fittings and connections with gas […]
The United States became the largest exporter of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in December 2021, edging out Qatar and Australia, as projects ramped up production and deliveries surged to Europe to help alleviate the energy crisis there. Output from U.S. LNG facilities edged above Qatar in December due mainly to an increase in exports from […]
One of the ways Democrats intend to pay for their reconciliation infrastructure bill is through the Methane Emissions Reduction Act of 2021, a proposed tax on methane emissions from natural gas and petroleum production. The tax would start at $1,800 per ton of emissions in 2023 with the potential direct cost of the tax to […]
