The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has extended the public comment period for the 2024 LNG Export Study from 60 days to 90 days, allowing submissions until March 20, 2025. This extension provides more time for the public to review and comment on how U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports impact the economy, energy, and environment. The DOE has received a large volume of comments and believes the extended timeframe will benefit stakeholders by giving them additional opportunity to provide feedback. Comments can be submitted electronically or by mail, but electronic submissions are encouraged to ensure timely receipt.

The Office of Fossil Energy & Carbon Management of the Department of Energy (DOE) has released a study evaluating the effects of U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports on the economy, environment, and energy security. This study includes detailed analyses of potential impacts on domestic energy prices, greenhouse gas emissions, and effects on local communities where gas production occurs. DOE encourages public comments on the study but does not plan to make revisions based on these comments, aiming instead to use them to guide decisions on LNG exports in countries without free trade agreements with the U.S. Those interested can provide their feedback electronically by February 18, 2025.
