Partnership to Address Global Emissions’ Post

The recently released Draghi report serves as a rallying cry for collective EU action to maintain a stable energy supply and reach its climate goals.The EU needs a natural gas strategy that balances competitiveness, energy security, and importantly, its climate goals. This means securing reliable and affordable gas supplies which remain compatible with European decarbonisation objectives. PAGE is engaged with European and U.S. policymakers to collaborate on beneficial solutions including long-term, flexible contracts.

Today, PAGE members gathered in Brussels with Centre on Regulation in Europe (CERRE), a leading European think tank, as well as European Commission and Member State representatives to discuss the future of the transatlantic energy partnership, focusing on the crucial role of US LNG for our European allies.   As the US elections and a new institutional cycle in the EU approach, this meeting is crucial to examine how political shifts could impact energy cooperation.

The consensus among policymakers and industry experts at Climate Week is clear – natural gas is vital for energy security and reducing global emissions, by decreasing dependence on global coal and dirtier energy from Russia. As we look towards the future, we need to capitalize on the opportunity we have before us. The U.S. has a responsibility to lead this movement towards a cleaner, more secure energy future with our abundant supply of natural gas.   Read our insights on this year's events and discussions

In 2022, U.S. LNG accounted for 40% of EU LNG imports, playing a vital role in the region’s energy security. However, the LNG export pause puts international energy security at risk and undermines our allies’ progress to wean themselves off Russian gas. PAGE supports the 12 Democratic US Representatives urging Biden and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to reconsider the LNG approval pause and resume our support for our European allies.

PAGE and its founding members thank the 12 Democratic Representatives who advocated for our shared goals of energy security and environmental stewardship through the expedited review of LNG projects. We look forward to working together to advance sound policies that further the decarbonization, employment, and geopolitical benefits of U.S. LNG, support our Ukrainian and Eastern European allies, and help us meet the long-term goals of the Paris Agreement.
