U.S. Energy Exports Highest in History @ 30.9 Quadrillion BTUs

The United States continued to produce more energy than it consumed in 2024. This surplus energy production helped energy exports grow to a record high 30.9 quadrillion British thermal units (quads) in 2024, up 4% from 2023. Energy imports remained flat at 21.7 quads in 2024, indicating that the United States exported 9.3 quads more energy than it imported, the highest net exports in the records of the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), which date back to 1949. Thanks to the miracle of shale energy!
