Energy Update
(Mon, 30 Nov 2020) Gabon is a mature oil producer in West Africa and among the top five oil producers in sub-Saharan Africa. Gabon enacted the 2019 Hydrocarbon Law to reinvigorate its oil market and support its 12th bidding round for the allocation of offshore blocks.
(Mon, 30 Nov 2020) Mexico is a major producer of petroleum and other liquids and is one of the largest providers of U.S. oil imports. Mexicoâs oil production has declined since 2004, as has the countryâs position as a net oil exporter.
(Wed, 18 Nov 2020) The first estimates from the 2018 <em>Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey</em> (CBECS) provide information about the U.S. commercial building stock, such as building size and activity, year of construction, and geographic region.
(Fri, 13 Nov 2020) Although Yemen is not a major hydrocarbon producer relative to several other countries in the Middle East, the country has sufficient oil and natural gas resources for both domestic demand and exports. However, Yemen's difficult security environment hinders the production and transport of those resources.
(Thu, 12 Nov 2020) The Philippines is a net energy importer, even though its consumption levels are low relative to its Southeast Asian neighbors and it produces fossil fuels domestically. Renewable energy sources account for a significant share of electricity generation.
(Fri, 06 Nov 2020) South Korea relies on imports to meet nearly all of its fossil fuel consumption as a result of insufficient domestic resources. The country is one of the worldâs leading energy importers and ranks among the worldâs top five importers of liquefied natural gas (LNG), coal, and total petroleum liquids.
(Fri, 30 Oct 2020) Japan is the world's largest liquefied natural gas importer and ranks in the top five countries for the highest coal imports and consumption of crude oil and petroleum products. Japan is gradually bringing back nuclear power generation after a complete shutdown of the industry following the Fukushima accident, and the country continues to rely on fossil fuel imports to supply most of its energy needs.
(Thu, 22 Oct 2020) This report estimates stochastic frontier energy demand functions with non-public, plant-level data from the U.S. Census Bureau to measure the energy efficiency gap and energy price elasticities in the food processing industry. Estimates of the energy efficiency gap are smaller but empirically more reasonable when using this new estimation methodology. Own-prices are generally inelastic with little evidence of fuel or electricity substitution.
(Wed, 14 Oct 2020) EIAâs new <em>Handbook of Energy Modeling Methods</em> explains, in plain language, the processes EIA uses to produce long- and short-term projections of key energy market statistics. Today EIA released <em>Handbook</em> documentation for most of the World Energy Projection System (WEPS), along with some parts of the National Energy Modeling System (NEMS) and the Short-Term Energy Forecasting System (STIFS).
(Wed, 30 Sep 2020) India was the third-largest energy consumer in the world after China and the United States in 2019, and despite having notable fossil fuel resources, the country has become increasingly dependent on energy imports. The country has moved away from traditional biomass and waste over the past several years as the availability of electricity connections spread for the residential and commercial sectors.
