US Special Envoy and Coordinator for International Energy Affairs Carlos Pascual described “the US internal energy revolution”: a 25% increase in natural-gas production, which should push down US gas prices, and enough oil output to reduce oil imports from 60% to 40% of consumption, with an additional 10% increase projected.
Selon Pascual, les Etats-Unis seront en mesure d’importer la totalité de leurs besoins énergétiques depuis les Amériques en 2030.
