Preliminary Findings Concerning 2016 Natural Gas Reserves (April 2017)

Understanding the size and diversity of U.S. natural gas reserves is a fundamental underpinning for evaluating U.S. production capability and thus the natural gas industry's ability to serve customers of all types. Extraordinary positive trends in U.S. natural gas production and proved reserves growth have existed in the United States for the past decade with the development of the shale gas revolution.

 

Natural Gas Efficiency Programs (2015 Program Year)

Awareness of the energy economy has steadily grown beyond the purview of business and public policy.  Economic and environmental concerns have become increasingly important drivers of consumer decisions about energy.  With this has come heightened attention to the potential for energy efficiency to moderate consumer cost increases, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and enhance energy security.  For natural gas utilities, investing in energy efficiency programs presents an opportunity to achieve these objectives and benefit the communities they serve.

 

Benefits of Natural Gas

Natural gas is an indispensable part of our modern lifestyle. Whether heating our homes, our water or cooking our food, natural gas is essential to our home life and the way we live.

DOE Underestimates Significant Economic Burdens from Furnace Rule

AGA proposal would provide superior balance between energy efficiency and protecting vulnerable consumers  

 

Natural Gas Delivers Greater Value and Lower Emissions for the 2016-17 Winter Heating Season

The direct use of natural gas continues to be the most affordable energy option for home heating and offers lower greenhouse gas emissions than other home energy sources. After an extraordinarily warm winter last year, even normal conditions would mean that residential customers this year would use more gas on average and therefore see slightly higher bills. AGA predicts consumers will experience a nine to eleven percent increase in overall heating bills this winter compared to the 2015-16 winter heating season. 

 

Workforce Development

For generations, natural gas utilities have served communities and supported families through good paying jobs and the opportunity for career advancement. Natural gas is the foundation fuel for our nation’s clean and secure energy future and AGA members want to hire a diverse and inclusive workforce that will upgrade and maintain the energy infrastructure of the 21st century.
