U.S. Energy relations with the Asia-Pacific region

Abstract: The goal of the U.S. National Energy Policy is to foster an adequate supply of energy at reasonable costs by promoting a balanced and mixed energy resource system that is not unduly dependent on any single source of supply, either foreign or domestic. Because the world oil market is interdependent, the United States is concerned not only with reducing its own vulnerability to oil and to other energy emergencies, but also with reducing the vulnerability of other countries, such as those in the Asia-Pacific region. To accomplish this the United States can modify its energy and oil use to ensure that Asia-Pacific countries will not be deprived of the energy supplies necessary for growth; it can undertake joint research and development efforts with countries in the region to promote cooperative approaches to mutual energy concerns; and it can cooperate with countries in the region to promote greater exports of U.S. energy resources and to thus provide secure and reliable energy supplies to Asia-Pacific countries.
