Energy executives at the Reuters Global Energy Transition conference envision a new role for existing natural gas pipelines in the clean energy future as conduits for hydrogen and renewable natural gas. For example, Southern California Gas, the US' largest gas utility, wants to produce hydrogen using excess renewable power and transport it via existing gas pipes as well as its proposed Angeles Link green hydrogen pipeline.

American Petroleum Institute President and CEO Mike Sommers wrote a letter asking President Joe Biden to encourage more fossil fuel development and outlined 10 policy recommendations to accelerate domestic energy production, including streamlining project permitting and removing federal oil and natural gas leasing curbs.

The energy sector is off to a mix to a higher start, supported by strength in the major equity futures despite losses in the oil markets. U.S. stocks are poised to rebound ahead of an expected interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve.
WTI and Brent crude oil futures are trading down on concerns about fuel demand and the possibility of a recession ahead of an expected interest rate hike by the U.S. Federal Reserve. Global macro continues to drive the oil markets as new inflation reports mixed with fast-changing views in the financial markets have increased the possibility the Fed will be more hawkish than investors had anticipated. This has opened the door to a 75-basis-point interest rate hike, in an attempt to curb inflation. China’s latest COVID-19 outbreak has lent some support to oil futures as investors are worried about a new phase of lockdowns. The EIA said in its monthly report that world oil demand will rise more than 2% to a record high in 2023, although soaring oil prices and weakening economic forecasts dimmed the future outlook.
Natural gas futures have gained followed yesterday’s sharp losses buoyed by intense heat, forecasts for more demand and higher global gas prices.
