  • The critical relationship between energy markets and economic development in Asia
  • The impact of the shale revolution on U.S.-Canada energy relations
  • The likely role of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in Asia’s energy security strategies, and the outlook for natural gas to become a global commodity

  • The differing policy environments in the United States and Canada toward Asian energy investments in North America, and the implications for future trans-Pacific ties

  • Market and policy solutions for addressing the dual challenges of rising energy demand and climate change in the Asia-Pacific
