US could become energy Independent by 2020 and the growth rate of energy production is estimated to be higher than growth rate of energy consumption through 2040
Domestic oil production will rise to 7.5 million barrels per day (bpd) in 2019, up from less than 6 million bpd in 2011.
The net import share of total U.S. energy consumption falls to 9 percent in 2040 from 19 percent in 2011.
United States will become a net exporter of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in 2016 and a net exporter of total natural gas (including via pipelines) in 2020.
In 2012, renewable sources of energy accounted for about 9% of total U.S. energy consumption
The share of electricity generation from renewables grows to 16 percent in 2040 from 13 percent in 2011.
