China Expands LNG Trucks

February 27, 2025

In this episode of the Energy News Beat Daily Standup, the host, Stuart Turley discusses several key energy topics: the impact of Iran sanctions on oil prices, the potential for Germany to restart its nuclear reactors after a failed green energy push, and the SEC's move to scrap costly climate disclosure rules amid legal battles. He also highlights red state officials urging President Trump to investigate the EU's climate mandates, and China's expanding LNG-powered truck fleet. Turley emphasizes that LNG trucks could be a better solution than electric vehicles, pointing to China's long-term energy planning as a model for the U.S.
