Shale oil production generates greenhouse gas emissions at levels similar to conventional crude oil production, according to a pair of new studies released by the US Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory. These are shale formations with low permeability and must be hydraulically fractured to produce oil and gas.

We are beginning to get a sense of regional variation in methane emissions from natural gas production. The gas fields we studied for this paper produced about 20% of the natural gas in the United States, and more than half the shale gas, so this moves us closer to understanding methane leaks from US natural gas production.

EV infrastructure is much less widespread than gas stations—and the number of EV chargers is only part of the problem. Chargers need to expand ahead of EV demand Charging infrastructure is not universally present, either. However, they are less excited about the possibility of finding charging points.
