Natural gas seen as number-one energy source for this century at MIT seminar
Found a nice article on “the future” of natural gas at the MIT Energy Initiative (MITEI) Web site. Leonardo Maugeri is a senior executive vice president of Eni S.p.A, a leading energy company and a founding member of the MITEI.
Maugeri was speaking at an MITEI-sponsored seminar when he said, “Because of its competitive price, availability, and clean-burning qualities natural gas is set to become the number-one energy source over the course of this century.”
It does look like it, doesn’t it?
Roger was writing about this month’s ago when he called natural gas a “nearly perfect fuel.” Mike just wrote a great article talking about source-based efficiency gains. Or you can read about the Potential Gas Committee’s report of unprecedented natural gas supply found in U.S. If you want to have a real conversation about our energy future, just read and comment on the articles you find here. It’s a good start and we’re glad to see others, like MIT, come along.
We think natural gas is going to be a big part of our energy future. What do you think?
