America is in the midst of a true energy revolution. After decades of fear over potential energy scarcity, we are now in an era of energy abundance, driven by technological innovation and American know-how.
But will we have the wisdom to capitalize on this opportunity? If we develop smart policies, we can use affordable and abundant energy to launch a manufacturing revival, improve our trade deficit, effectively increase household spending power, and revitalize America’s economy.
America’s rise to a global energy superpower has been driven by constant advancements in technology and innovation.
The U.S. Chamber Global Energy Institute's EnergyInnovates is a multi-platform initiative that showcases American innovators, projects and technologies that have shaped today’s energy landscape—and are laying the groundwork for the future.
