The Energy Workforce & Technology Council have released a statement in response to the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) study on the impacts of liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports.
The Biden Administration’s report alleges that LNG exports will increase greenhouse gas emissions and falsely claims that they will cause gas prices to rise. The study comes on the heels of the Administration’s continued pause on LNG exports.
"The Biden Administration's so-called "study" is the last-ditch effort of a lame duck presidency designed to hamper American energy production,” said Energy Workforce President Tim Tarpley. “There is no other country in the world that produces energy as efficiently and with as low emissions as the United States. The “pause” has only served to undermine our nation's energy security, harm our allies abroad, and increase global emissions. Thankfully, I expect that the incoming Administration will reverse this pause early next year.”
“Converting coal-fired power generation to natural gas has resulted in the U.S. lowering our carbon emissions more than nearly any other country. By throttling LNG exports, we are forcing developing nations to abandon plans to reduce emissions and increase coal consumption. This short-sighted policy will have severe consequences for global climate goals and American jobs,” Tarpley continued.
A continuation of the LNG pause stands to negatively impact over 275,000 jobs nationwide, resulting in an anticipated loss of over $400...
