U.S. Threatens IEA Withdrawal Over ‘Politicized’ Energy Forecasts
UNITED STATES, JUL 15 – Energy Secretary Chris Wright demands reform of the International Energy Agency's forecasting or threatens U.S. withdrawal, citing biased green energy projections and energy security concerns.
- On July 15, U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright warned the IEA must reform forecasting methods or face U.S. withdrawal, emphasizing the need for a more realistic approach, Wright said.
- Earlier this year, reports showed the Trump Administration is pushing the IEA to shift focus, as Senator John Barrasso said it became an 'energy transition cheerleader', leading to tensions over global energy forecasts.
- Data from the Oil 2025 report shows a demand plateau by 2029, `That's just total nonsense,` Wright said on the sidelines of the Pittsburgh summit.
- An IEA spokesperson responded, `The IEA welcomes feedback on our work and attaches great importance to our dialogue with the Department of Energy,` highlighting ongoing US-IEA tensions.
- Some analysts warn that whether reform or withdrawal prevails, this dispute could reshape global energy forecasting and policy for years to come.
