U.S. and Asia: Energy Partnerships for a Secure Future

The U.S. Department of Energy is closely monitoring global energy dynamics, particularly with respect to the energy security of Asian regions. During a recent conversation with Haslinda Amin at Gastech Bangkok 2026, James Danly, Deputy Secretary of Energy from the U.S., discussed strategies to strengthen Asia's energy security amid rising import costs for oil and natural gas. The central concern is not only providing technical and financial assistance but also promoting diversification of supply sources, reducing reliance on a few exporting countries. This initiative aligns with global efforts to combat climate change and enhance energy resilience in a volatile geopolitical environment.
