Wyoming Facts

Fast Facts:

The Powder River Basin, most of which lies in northeastern Wyoming, is the largest coal-producing region in the Nation, accounting for approximately 40 percent of all coal mined in the United States.

More than 30 States receive coal from Wyoming, and several Midwestern and Southern States are highly or entirely dependent on Wyoming’s coal supply.

Wyoming is one of the top natural gas-producing States in the Nation.

The Southern Wyoming Corridor is one of the most favorable locations for wind power development in the country.

The Governors of four Western States are pursuing a 1,300-mile high-capacity power line that would allow Wyoming and other Rocky Mountain States to transmit as much as 12 thousand megawatts of electricity to California.

The American Energy Alliance (“AEA”) is a not-for-profit organization formed to engage in public policy advocacy and debate, and legislative and executive-branch advocacy, concerning the function, operation and government regulation of global energy markets.

AEA’s position is that freely-functioning energy markets provide the most efficient and effective solutions to today’s global energy and environmental challenges and, as such, are critical to the well-being of individuals and society. AEA believes that government policies should be predictable, simple and technology neutral.
