America’s Natural Gas Pipeline Network
Pipelines transport natural gas from producers to consumers, providing critical energy needed to heat our homes, cook our food, fuel our factories, and generate electricity. Natural gas is a domestically produced, affordable, and foundational fuel source that the U.S. will rely on for decades to come, and natural gas and its related infrastructure are critical to a reliable, secure, and affordable clean energy future.
Delivering Affordable Energy for the Future
To meet America’s future energy needs, we need to build more infrastructure – from pipelines and power lines to power plants and offshore wind. Congress must take action update the federal statutes which would reform the permitting process to build essential energy infrastructure in America. Leveraging our abundant, affordable energy resources is how America stays ahead in the global economy.

Pipelines are the safest, most reliable, and most affordable way to deliver natural gas to consumers across the country. Pipelines work like a clean energy highway that moves natural gas from where it is produced to where it is consumed. Approximately one-third of energy consumed in the U.S. travels through natural gas infrastructure. We make safety our first priority on each and every project to ensure a safe and reliable energy highway.
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission is the lead federal agency responsible for the review and approval of interstate natural gas pipelines and is one of INGAA’s principal federal regulators. Under Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act, FERC must determine that new interstate gas pipeline projects or expansions are in “the public convenience and necessity” in order to approve them.

The INGAA Foundation, partnering with the NEED Project, created a toolkit to provide student-friendly activities that can be taken into the community setting – whether a tabling event, a classroom visit, a speaking engagement, or a career fair – and provide confidence-building opportunities for our emerging STEM-leaders. These activities also come with training modules, which aim to get stakeholders confident and prepared to go into community settings and engage with stakeholders about the value of natural gas and its related infrastructure.
