American Competitiveness
While the United States is leading the world in emissions reductions, China’s and developing nation’s emissions continue to rise. By increasing American energy production and implementing an all-of-the-above energy approach, the U.S. will continue to not only be a global leader in reducing emissions, but also provide goods and energy for the rest of world, support economic growth and enhance security for America and our allies.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing industries worldwide, and energy is no exception. With its ability to optimize grid management, enhance equipment reliability and accelerate innovation, AI promises a more efficient, sustainable and secure energy future. However, America’s ability to maintain its leadership in this transformative field is at risk. China, our primary geopolitical rival, is […]
Introduction The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) promises unparalleled advancements across every industry in the United States with the potential to enhance nearly every product and service through innovation. Energy is no exception. AI has the potential to revolutionize how we generate, distribute and consume power—transforming everything from demand forecasting to grid management and supply […]
CRES Forum hosted the sixth and final CRES Academy session of 2024, “Nuclear 101: The Role of Nuclear Technologies in Powering the Future.” The session explored the vital importance of nuclear assets for the future of energy in the U.S., including the different regulatory environments that nuclear utilities operate in, the deployment challenges that nuclear […]
Introduction The United States is experiencing a historic period of load growth and resource demand led by new manufacturing, industrial facilities and data centers. In this context, carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) technologies are emerging as a crucial solution – and one of the most cost-effective – to address the challenge of meeting increased […]
The United States’ energy security has changed dramatically since U.S. imports peaked in 2007. As the U.S. continues to decarbonize and work towards net zero, many questions must be answered: At what pace and scale will the U.S. need to deploy clean energy technologies to achieve net zero emissions?

Introduction Geothermal energy is the process by which naturally occurring steam and hot water are used to generate zero-emission energy, at both small- and utility-scale. Current technology drills wells deep into the Earth to harness geothermal resources for use aboveground. While geothermal is currently only four percent of the United States’ electricity production, a recent […]
Background On January 26, the Biden Administration announced a de facto ban on pending decisions for exports of liquified natural gas (LNG) to non-Free Trade Agreement (FTA) countries, until the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) updates the underlying analyses for authorizations. The announcement sparked extensive global debate and for good reason. The lack of clear […]
