Fracking In California Under Spotlight As Some Local Municipalities Issue Bans

There’s no denying that North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) has been very good for U.S. energy over the years. Yet, whether we will be able to say the same about NAFTA 2.0 years down the road is an open question.

Children play in a playground in Racine,

Ohio-based utility FirstEnergy’s efforts to land a bailout from consumers have crossed over from the problematic to the absurd. With the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) in January rejecting a bid to alter the electricity marketplace in ways that would favor some generating facilities over others, FirstEnergy last week launched an end-run around FERC, asking U.S. Energy Secretary… Keep reading →

Let’s correct a false narrative out there, that the Trump Administration is rolling back natural gas and oil regulation to benefit industry.
