Demand for energy is growing across North America. Since 2019, we've lowered methane emissions intensity by 24% while increasing throughput by 20%, demonstrating that growth and emissions performance can be achieved together.

Secure energy. Secure economy. Resilience starts with reliable energy. Hospitals, defense installations, manufacturers and communities depend on natural gas—especially in extreme weather. Our interconnected network is the backbone for grid stability and growing LNG exports, strengthening alliances and reinforcing North America’s role in global energy security.

This World Environment Day, people across the globe are taking time to reflect on the ways that we can help safeguard our environment for future generations. Natural gas is playing a critical role in that future as reliable and efficient fuel🌳. Natural gas utilities invest billions of dollars annually in energy efficiency programs and new technologies that help families, businesses and communities reduce their consumption, helping advance a cleaner, more sustainable future.

In this edition of The Green Molecules® Journal, the @ecv_vc team discusses liquified natural gas. In particular #LNG expansion as part of a larger #EnergyExpansion: the #infrastructure buildout required to support rising global #energy demand, industrial growth, #AI-driven power needs, and the continued importance of reliable, transportable molecules. LNG is not just a commodity export. It is a signal that the #naturalgas value chain is entering a new infrastructure cycle. #greenmolecules ! energycapitalventures.com/po….

In this edition of The Green Molecules® Journal, the @ecv_vc team discusses how the recent geopolitical disruptions have exposed the fragility of global hashtag#energy systems, accelerating a structural shift in how the world values, moves, and secures its energy supply.  At Energy Capital Ventures®, we view this not through a lens of conflict, but as a market reorganization—an hashtag#energyexpansion defined by the move from “just-in-time” efficiency to “just-in-case” security. In this issue, we examine the forces reshaping global molecule markets: the rerouting of trade flows, the repricing of domestic supply, and the growing role of has #GreenMolecules® in a more volatile system. #energysecurity energycapitalventures.com/po…

Let me illustrate the scale of our natural gas system: The energy in the natural gas delivered today just to residential and commercial consumers is the energy equivalent of 900 GW of electric generation capacity running for 24 hours. The grid today has 1,300 GW of capacity.
Gas is keeping the lights on and homes warm during this brutal storm while renewables drop in and out. We need more pipelines to ensure reliability--redundancy saves lives! But 2/3 of the cost of a new pipeline is permitting (i.e., a shakedown). Permitting reform now.
