福克斯独家： 周六，白宫纪念唐纳德·特朗普总统国家能源主导委员会成立一周年，期间将其与拜登时代进行鲜明对比，内政部长道格·伯古姆援引更高的产量和更低的天然气价格作为证明，称这是美国民众“切实节省开支”的证据。
“在总统的领导下，通过委员会不懈的执行，我们在能源生产、可负担性和安全性方面取得了历史性成就，”国家能源主导委员会主席、内政部长道格·伯古姆向福克斯新闻数字版表示。
“汽油价格已降至多年来的最低水平，许可流程得到简化，美国能源出口激增，”他补充道。“这些成就并非抽象概念，它们意味着家庭、农民和小企业实实在在的节省，也在加强我们在世界舞台上的地位。”
特朗普于2025年2月14日签署行政命令，成立国家能源主导委员会，其任务是削减繁文缛节、协调各机构以提高美国能源产量、加快许可审批、扩大出口，并实施全国性的“能源主导”战略。

一年后，政府指出一系列数据显示，美国在产量上已加速超越拜登时代，同时降低了能源成本，这些成本影响到家庭预算，从汽油和取暖到运输和食品杂货。
例如，2025年美国原油产量达到创纪录的每日1360万桶，白宫称这是世界上任何国家的最高产量。相比之下，拜登政府用了四年时间才将产量从每日1130万桶提升至1320万桶，而“特朗普仅用数月就超越了这一数字”。
在天然气生产方面，政府称2025年11月美国日产量达1101亿立方英尺，是1973年联邦开始追踪以来的最高水平。据数据显示，总体产量比拜登时代的平均水平高出约8%，比美国天然气生产之前的纪录高出4%。

“在我们纪念这一周年之际，我们重申致力于推进美国能源主导地位，并确保我国丰富的能源资源继续为子孙后代的繁荣、安全和自由提供动力，”伯古姆在向福克斯新闻数字版的评论中补充道。

通过扩大能源电网降低价格，是成立该委员会的行政命令的关键，该命令呼吁“可靠且负担得起的能源生产以降低通胀、促进经济增长、创造高薪工作”。
能源已成为政府解决拜登时代因通胀达到40年高点而产生的负担能力担忧的关键环节，因为廉价能源通常通过降低运输和航运成本以及工厂生产食品杂货和建筑材料的电费，从而影响整个经济。

白宫将更便宜的汽油视为今年“厨房餐桌”上的胜利，吹嘘每加仑价格约为2.90美元，比拜登时代的平均水平低16%，比2022年6月的5.02美元峰值下降约42%。政府庆祝称，可负担的能源惠及从工薪家庭和农村社区到小企业和农民的美国人，这些群体通常需要更远距离加油或预算有限。
2025年原油价格已下跌约18%，从拜登时代的平均每桶79美元降至65美元。
与此同时，环保组织抨击特朗普的“能源主导”推动是化石燃料扩张，这削弱了气候目标，并可能增加污染，对公共土地和社区造成影响。

“一年前，唐纳德·特朗普总统启动了国家能源主导委员会，以恢复美国的能源主导地位并为辛勤工作的家庭降低生活成本。今天，结果不言而喻，”伯古姆在谈到数据时表示。
Trump trounces Biden energy records in just months as admin celebrates 1 year of ‘historic gains’: data
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum cites ‘real savings’ for families as natural gas exports surge to historic highs

FIRST ON FOX:The White House on Saturday marked the one-year anniversary of President Donald Trump’s National Energy Dominance Council by drawing a sharp contrast with the Biden-era, including Interior Secretary Doug Burgum citing higher production and lower gas prices as proof of “real savings” for Americans.
“Under the President’s leadership and through the Council’s relentless execution, we have delivered historic gains in energy production, affordability, and security,” Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, chair of the National Energy Dominance Council, told Fox News Digital.
“Gasoline prices have fallen to some of the lowest levels in years, permitting has been streamlined, and American energy exports are surging,” he added. “These achievements are not abstract, they mean real savings for families, farmers, and small businesses, and they are strengthening our position on the world stage.”
Trump signed an executive order creating the National Energy Dominance Council on Feb. 14, 2025, which was tasked with cutting red tape and coordinating agencies to boost U.S. energy production, speed up permitting approvals, expand exports and deliver a national “energy dominance” strategy.

A year later, the administration pointed to a series of metrics showing the U.S. has accelerated past Biden-era data on production — while driving down energy costs that ripple through household budgets, from gas and heating to shipping and groceries.
U.S. crude oil production, for example, reached a record 13.6 million barrels per day in 2025, with the White House calling it the highest output of any country in the world. In comparison, the Biden administration took four years for production to climb from 11.3 million to 13.2 million barrels per day, a figure “Trump blew past in months,” according to the White House.
On the natural gas production front, the administration said the U.S. produced 110.1 billion cubic feet per day in November 2025, the highest level recorded since federal tracking began in 1973. All in, production is about 8% above the Biden-era average, and 4% above the previous record for U.S. natural gas production, according to the data.

While the U.S. has also widened its lead as the world’s top liquefied natural gas (LNG) exporter, with average LNG exports rising to 15 billion cubic feet per day in 2025, up from 11 under the Biden administration.

“As we mark this anniversary, we reaffirm our commitment to advancing American Energy Dominance and ensuring that our nation’s energy abundance continues to power prosperity, security, and freedom for generations to come,” Burgum added in a comment to Fox News Digital.

Lowering prices through an expanded energy grid was crucial to the executive order establishing the council itself, calling for “reliable and affordable energy production to drive down inflation, grow our economy, create good-paying jobs.”
Energy has emerged as a key piece of the administration’s puzzle of addressing affordability concerns stemming from the Biden era when inflation hit a 40-year-high, as cheaper energy typically ripples through the economy by cutting transportation and shipping costs and lowering the power bills factories pay to make everything from groceries to building materials.

The White House cast cheaper gas as a kitchen-table win this year, touting pump prices are about $2.90 a gallon, which is 16% below the Biden-era average and a roughly 42% drop from the $5.02 peak in June 2022. The administration celebrated that affordable energy benefits Americans from working families and rural communities, to small businesses and farmers who typically frequently drive farther for gas or those on a budget.
Crude oil prices have fallen by roughly 18% in 2025, dropping to $65 a barrel from the $79 Biden-era average, according to the data.
Environmental groups have meanwhile slammed Trump’s “energy dominance” push as a fossil-fuel expansion that undercuts climate goals and could increase pollution and impacts on public lands and communities.

“One year ago, President Donald J. Trump launched the National Energy Dominance Council to restore America’s Energy Dominance and make life more affordable for hardworking families. Today, the results speak for themselves,” Burgum said of the data.
