Overview
The US energy and climate policy landscape reflects a shift towards fossil fuel expansion under recent administrative changes, reversing prior commitments to emissions reduction. While federal agencies oversee energy regulation and efficiency, state-level variations persist, particularly in electricity markets. Renewable energy growth faces setbacks, with tax credit reductions and offshore wind moratoriums, though some states maintain ambitious clean energy targets. Meanwhile, coal and nuclear sectors receive renewed support, and LNG export capacities are set to expand significantly.

Highlights
- The US targets (50% reduction in GHG emissions in 2030, or carbon-free power generation in 2035) are compromised by the decision of the Trump administration to withdraw from the Paris agreement and the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" promoting fossil fuels development.
- Ten large electricity companies own about 30% of the total capacity. Chevron is the country's biggest oil producer, ahead of ConocoPhillips and ExxonMobil.
- The US is the largest producer of both oil and gas worldwide. Oil production has been growing by 5%/year since 2020. Coal consumption has decreased by 63% since its peak in 2007. Carbon-free sources reached 42% of the power mix in 2025 (+14 points since 2010).
- Oil still accounts for almost half of the final energy consumption in 2024 (46%). US energy prices are 40-50% below the OECD average.
- LNG export capacities are expected to increase by more than 80% by 2030 and LNG export volumes to double by 2050. More than 40% of the coal-fired capacity will be retired by 2030, as well as almost 20% of the nuclear capacity by 2033.
Energy & Climate Policy Framework
The Department of Energy (DoE) oversees the coordination of all the national activities concerning the production, regulation, management, and conservation of energy. The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy is in charge of developing and promoting energy technologies that contribute to "sustainable" development.
Energy Companies
Electricity:
NextEra Energy is the largest generating utility, owning a total capacity of around 68 GW (end of 2024), which is divided between its two main subsidiaries: Florida Power & Light (FPL) and NextEra Energy Resources). It is followed by Duke Energy, with around 55 GW, and Southern Company (46 GW).
Energy Supply & Demand
Oil:
Oil production (crude and NGL) has increased by around 5%/year since 2020, reaching 865 Mt in 225. It more than doubled between 2011 and 2019 (10%/year). Non-conventional sources now account for more than 50% of total oil production. Since 2017, the United States has become the largest oil producer in the world.
Energy Use and Price by Sector
Energy Prices in Industry:
The average price of electricity for industry increased by 11%/year from 2020 to 2022 and remained stable until 2024 ($8.1c/kWh in 2024). It has increased by 6% in 2025 to $8.6c/kWh. Industry prices remain the lowest in the OECD.
Issues & Prospects
Official EIA long-term forecasts (AEO- Annual Energy Outlook 2026, reference scenario) expect energy consumption to increase slightly until 2050 at a rate of 0.9% to 1.6%, with data centres being a major driver It may represent 15 to 18% of electricity consumption in 2050.
