Why are energy costs continuing to rise, and how much of it comes down to infrastructure?

On this episode of The Crude Truth, Rey sits down with David Holt, President of the Consumer Energy Alliance, to break down the forces affecting energy prices across the United States.

They discuss America’s position as a major global energy producer, the impact of infrastructure on electricity and natural gas prices, and the challenges facing the nation as energy demand grows. David explains why transmission lines, pipelines, refining capacity, natural gas, nuclear power, and other energy resources all play a role in keeping energy reliable and affordable.

The conversation also explores the growing energy demands from data centers, the future of the Texas power grid, refinery capacity, diesel prices, and the relationship between energy policy and consumers.

From pipelines and refining to electricity bills and the future of American energy, this episode takes a closer look at the infrastructure behind the energy we use every day.
