The Facts
Great attention has been paid to the pursuing of a net-zero carbon future. Net-zero policies raise energy costs for American families and businesses, threaten the reliability of our energy system, and undermine our energy and national security. They have also achieved precious little in reducing global greenhouse gas emissions. The fact is that energy matters, and we need more of it, not less. Going forward, the Department’s goal will be to unleash the great abundance of American energy required to power modern life and to achieve a durable state of American energy dominance.

Maximizing Domestic Production
The United States possesses abundant energy resources that remain underutilized. By expanding responsible development of oil, natural gas, and coal reserves on federal lands and offshore areas, we can create jobs, generate revenue, and reduce dependence on foreign energy sources. Streamlining permitting processes and removing unnecessary regulatory barriers will enable energy companies to invest with confidence in America's energy future.
