New Report Finds Unprecedented Amount of Natural Gas Supply in the U.S.

New Report Finds Unprecedented Amount of Natural Gas Supply in the U.S.
Source: American Gas Association

The American Gas Association (AGA) today held a press conference with the Potential Gas Committee (PGC) to release its year-end 2008 biennial report: Potential Supply of Natural Gas in the United States. The assessment found that the United States possesses a total natural gas resource base of 1,836 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) and a total available future supply of 2,074 Tcf—the highest resources evaluation in the PGC’s 44-year history, equaling about 100 years of supply. Americans consume an average of 22 Tcf per year.

Despite a 70 percent increase in households using natural gas during the past three decades, there has been virtually no growth in emissions in this sector. Natural gas customers continue to reduce household consumption and carbon emissions dramatically by using energy wisely, weatherizing their homes, using energy-efficient appliances and installing programmable thermostats.
