Technological advances in energy production have driven changes in energy consumption, and Melissa N. Diaz, the United States has moved from being a net importer of most forms of energy to a declining Coordinator importer—and a net exporter in 2019. The United States remains the second largest producer and Analyst in Energy Policy consumer of energy in the world, behind China. Overall energy consumption in the United States has held relatively steady since 2000, while the mix of energy sources has changed. Between 2000 and 2019, consumption of natural gas and renewable energy increased, while oil and nuclear power were relatively flat and coal decreased. In the same period, production of oil, natural gas, and renewables increased, while nuclear power was relatively flat and coal decreased. Overall energy production increased by 42% over the same period. Increases in the production of oil and natural gas are due in part to technological improvements in hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling that have facilitated access to resources in unconventional formations (e.g., shale). U.S. oil production (including natural gas liquids and crude oil) and natural gas production hit record highs in 2019. The United States is the largest producer of natural gas, a net exporter, and the largest consumer. Oil, natural gas, and other liquid fuels depend on a network of over three million miles of pipeline infrastructure.

Japan must develop safer nuclear power, which is supported by people.

  • The German Energiewende – History and Status Quo
    1 The German Energiewende – History and Status Quo Jürgen‐Friedrich Hake,1) Wolfgang Fischer,1) Sandra Venghaus,1) Christoph Weckenbrock1) 1) Forschungszentrum Jülich, Institute of Energy and Climate Research ‐ Systems Analysis and Technology Evaluation (IEK‐STE), D‐52425 Jülich, Germany Executive Summary Industrialized nations rely heavily on fossil fuels as an economic factor. Energy systems therefore play a special part in realizing visions of future sustainable societies. In Germany, successive governments have specified their ideas on sustainable development and the related energy system. Detailed objectives make the vision of the Energiewende – the transformation of the energy sector – more concrete. Many Germans hope that the country sets a positive example for other nations whose energy systems also heavily rely on fossil fuels. A glance at the historical dimensions of this transformation shows that the origins of German energy objectives lie more than thirty years in the past. The realization of these goals has not been free from tensions and conflicts. This article aims at explaining Germany’s pioneering role in the promotion of an energy system largely built on renewable energy sources by disclosing the drivers that have successively led to the Energiewende. To reveal these drivers, the historical emergence of energy politics in Germany was analyzed especially with respect to path dependencies and discourses (and their underlying power relations) as well as exogenous events that have enabled significant shifts in the political energy strategy of Germany. Keywords Energy transition, energy policy, energy security, nuclear power, renewables, Germany Contribution to Energy, 2nd revision 4/14/2015 2 I Introduction In light of the global challenges of climate change, increasing greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution, the depletion of natural resources and political instabilities, the transition of national energy systems has become a major challenge facing energy policy making in many countries [e.g., Shen et al., 2011, Al‐Mansour, 2011].
