Burning natural gas is about one-half as carbon-intensive as coal, which can make it a “bridge fuel” for many countries as the world transitions to even cleaner sources of energy. Going forward, the Administration will promote fuel-switching from coal to gas for electricity production and encourage the development of a global market for gas.
