According to four sources of the Energy Department (Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department Department The department, according to four sources of the Department of Energy Department, the Biden administration intentionally buried the final version of the research, which would undermine the decision to allow approval by four sources of the Energy Department (Doe), would undermine the decision to permit 2024.
Former energy secretary Jennifer Granholm and former president Joe Biden announced . LNG Freeze In January 2024, stating that it will remain in place until Doe is able to conduct a fresh climate study and the economic effects of the boost in LNG exports. Biden Doe finalized the sketch of the research in 2023, and then buried it, because the findings of the initial version would be contrary to the justification of the administration for freezing LNG, in accordance with four sources in Trump Doe, which Daily Caller News Foundation freely discussed the sensitive issue.
“The Department of Energy learned that the former secretary of Granholm and Biden White House intentionally buried a lot of data and published a distorted study to discredit the benefits of American LNG,” said DCNF of one of the sources of Doe. “The priority of its own political ambitions regarding the interests of the American people, and the administration deliberately deceived American public opinion to develop a program that harmed American energy security, the environment and American life.”
Biden Doe basically completed the last version of the LNG Impacts study by the end of September 2023, and this version was ready to present the best Biden officials, after which the sources of Trump Doe were informed by DCNF. This special iteration of the study, DCNF sources, showed that the boost in US LNG exports would actually reduce global emissions in relation to other scenarios.
This special discovery is contrary to the analysis of Granholm of the final version of the study published publicly in December 2024, in which she argued that any boost in LNG exports would cause a higher global emission of greenhouse gas.
At the end of September 2023, the Biden administration clerk left the commentary on the final version of the project, which instructed others to stop working on it until further notice, despite another language in a document stating that the final version was to be published at the end of September 2023, DCNF TRUMP DCNF said. This version of the study was never published in public, and Biden Doe decided that it was a “working document”, taking into account that the agency then classified it as part of the internal prudent process, according to DEE sources.
In addition, it seems that Biden Doe removed many pages that appeared in the version from September 2023. From what became the final version of the report published publicly at the end of 2024, DCNF Trump Doe said.
While versions of the paper of September 2023 and December 2024 have the same name, the final version published publicly did not contain a specific type of LNG export analysis called the consideration of market effects, the source of Trump Doe was informed by DCNF. This special analysis – the study of September 2023 contained in the buried version, but not the final product – showed that American exports LNG would reduce global emissions, displacing more polluting energy sources abroad, and its lack in December 2024 allowed Biden Doe to make a final report on the findings of the final report on increasing LNG exports.
Evidence indicating that Biden administration buried the initial, uncomfortable politically version of the study and misled American public opinion, will soon be transferred to congress and public opinion, DCNF DCNF said.
Granholm and Biden informed the statements after announcing the break, which suggests that the administration freezes the approval of LNG exports in order to implement the answers that, according to the sources of Trump Doe, have already been found, and that Biden officials decided to ignore. In particular, both Biden and Granholm suggested that increased LNG exports would be a negative net for the global climate, with Granholm the same after the publication of the final study in December 2024.
“During this period, we will look at the influence of LNG exports on energy costs, energy security and our environment. statement on the day of announcement break. “Magic Republicans deliberately deny the urgency of the climate crisis, condemning the American people in a threatening future, my administration will not be satisfied.
In particular, the marshal of the house Mike Johnson Summoned To the free press in January 2025 that Biden “honestly did not know what he signed” when he asked the president to decide to freeze LNG approvals in January 2024, and the Republican added that he had left this meeting with the impression that Biden did not lead the country in practice.
Doe It was found That he would “initiate” an inspection to determine whether to boost LNG exports is in the public interest in his statement of January 26, 2024, on the day the break was announced.
Granholm claimed The fact that the final version of the study published in public in December 2024 shows that “in each scenario the increase in LNG exports would lead to an increase in global net emission” and that “a business approach is not balanced or indicated”. When Pausa was forbidden in January 2024, Granholm said in a statement that “he will ensure that Doe would remain a responsible actor using the most current economic and environmental analyzes.”
“At that time, Granholm said that they were literally hiding from the public, the most current economic and environmental analyzes, because it denied this ban, which they tried to introduce.
