Energy Production & Transition

Powering our Homes, Businesses – and Economy

Pennsylvania’s abundant and diverse energy portfolio is one of our greatest strengths. Whether you’re an energy company looking to utilize our plentiful reserves of natural gas for energy production or a manufacturing company with extensive energy-intensive processes, Pennsylvania can meet your needs. In fact, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, our commonwealth produces the second-largest amount of energy in the United States.

Our natural gas reserves – ranked second in the country producing more than 7.1 trillion cubic feet per year – have drawn plenty of attention for powering our homes and meeting the demands of even the most energy-hungry businesses like heavy industry and data processing. But in the midst of a fundamental transition in the way the world produces and consumes energy, Pennsylvania is also looking forward.

That’s why we offer funding support for renewable energy projects like solar and wind. And that’s why the 2021 Pennsylvania Climate Action Plan set forth a roadmap for greatly expanding renewable energy, incentivizing new technology like hydrogen and combined heat and power, sustaining nuclear energy, and pursuing carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) projects.

The result is a robust and balanced energy portfolio that maximizes our current strengths in natural gas production while strategically implementing sustainable and climate-friendly energy development. If your business is looking to produce energy or needs an abundant supply of energy to operate, learn why Pennsylvania is the best fit for you.
