updates: A federal judge in Louisiana has blocked the Biden administration's pause on LNG export permits. The judge ruled that the pause was 'completely without reason or logic' and contravened the Natural Gas Act. The court's decision has been hailed as a major victory by opponents of the LNG permitting pause.

Version 0.57 (2024-07-06 10:54:18.209000)

updates: The court's decision aligns with the argument that American natural gas is a win for climate, economy, and security. Switching from coal to natural gas has been the primary reason for the U.S.'s emissions reduction. American LNG is cleaner than coal used for energy in Europe and Asia. American LNG exports are also cheaper than the Russian alternative. Innovations in the fossil fuel industry, such as carbon capture and methane abatement, can make American natural gas less emissions-intensive. American LNG has been an economic boon, creating jobs and ensuring national and global energy security. Relying on Russia and Iran for energy puts the U.S. and its allies at risk. The court's decision to halt the ban on new LNG export permits is a step in the right direction for a clean energy future.

The pause, which was signed by President Biden in January, was challenged by 16 states in a lawsuit claiming that it would negatively impact the U.S. economy and interfere with gas supply to European allies. U.S. District Judge James Cain ruled that the government’s move was arbitrary, capricious, and unconstitutional, and violated the Natural Gas Act. The ruling is expected to alleviate tension in energy circles caused by federal government energy policies.

updates: The U.S. House of Representatives passes the Unlocking Our Domestic LNG Potential Act of 2024 with a bipartisan vote of 224-200, overturning the Biden administration's decision to pause LNG exports to non-free trade partners. The bill transfers the authority to approve export requests to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and repeals all restrictions on the import and export of natural gas by amending the Natural Gas Act. House Energy and Commerce Committee Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers criticizes President Biden's ban on new permits for clean U.S. LNG exports, arguing that it puts the interests of radical environmentalists ahead of the best interests of the United States and its allies. Eight members of the U.S. upper house have requested a determination from the Government Accountability Office on whether the Department of Energy's decision to pause LNG exports falls under the Congressional Review Act.

updates: President Biden's decision to impose a moratorium on permits for liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminals has drawn criticism and raised concerns about its impact on jobs, economic growth, and energy security in the United States. Congressman Tom Cole argues that the policy targets American-made energy and ignores the fact that natural gas is a critical component of productivity and sustainability. The Department of Energy's decision to suspend new permits for building LNG export terminals is part of President Biden's commitment to transitioning away from fossil fuels and fighting climate change. The debate around the regulation of residential gas boilers reflects the broader discussions and challenges surrounding the energy transition and the need to balance environmental goals with economic considerations.
