The article focuses on the electricity import and export trade between Mexico, the U.S., and Canada. It is stated that while U.S. electricity exports to Canada and Mexico have decreased, imports have increased overall since 2006, over the same period. It is noted that accounting for approximately 2% of annual Mexican electricity generation, total U.S. electricity imports from Mexico were approximately 7.31 Terawatt-hours (TWh) in 2015.

The article provides overview of crude oil exports and retail gasoline prices in the U.S. Topics discussed include impact of increasing crude oil exports on rise in gasoline prices; relationship between U.S. crude oil export volumes and prices paid by U.S. consumers for retail gasoline; and Energy Information Administration's take on the same.

The article focuses on the future prospects for electricity import and export trade between Mexico, the U.S. and Canada. It is stated that future cross-border electricity trade will be a function of both the availability of cross-border transmission infrastructure to move electric power and the development of future generation capacity.

The article focuses on the state of natural gas trade in North America between the U.S., Canada and Mexico. It is mentioned that U.S. natural gas exports have risen and imports have declined significantly with the advent of U.S. shale gas supplies around 2006. It is noted that Mexico has had to rely ever more on imports as its natural gas production has not been able to keep pace with its demand.

The article focuses on the natural gas liquids (NGLs) trade in North America among the U.S., Mexico and Canada. It is stated that NGL production and NGL exports have increased with the U.S. natural gas production. It is noted that Canada has imported more NGLs to supply its petrochemical facilities as NGL (especially ethane) production in the U.S.has increased.

The article focuses on the transportation infrastructure of liquefied natural gas between the U.S., Canada and the U.S. It is stated that although there are some deliveries from Ontario by an Enbridge cross-border pipeline, Canada's NGL exports to the U.S. are shipped primarily by rail. It is stated that five existing pipelines between Mexico and the U.S. have capacity of between 150,000 and 175,000 barrels per day and currently ship NGLs between the two countries.

The article focuses on the natural gas liquids (NGLs) trade in North America among the U.S., Mexico and Canada. It is stated that as shale gas production has increased and natural gas prices have fallen, the trade has taken on a new prominence in the U.S. energy trade. It is mentioned that NGL production in the U.S. is projected to continue its upward trajectory and has grown rapidly since 2006.

The article focuses on the transportation of natural gas among the U.S., Canada and Mexico, which is almost entirely by pipeline. It is stated that new pipeline investments on both sides of the border would be contingent on having sufficient natural gas supply and transportation infrastructure from (or through) Texas although it has the potential to support a significant future expansion in cross-border natural gas trade.

The article focuses on the state of natural gas trade in North America between the U.S., Canada and Mexico. It is mentioned that the three nations account for just under 7% of the world's natural gas reserves and is in a state of rapid transformation and growth. It is stated that the two countries have great potential for future production based on estimates of undiscovered, technically recoverable resources despite the limited reserve estimates in Canada and Mexico.

The article focuses on the future prospects for the coal trade between the U.S., Mexico and Canada. It is stated that reducing carbon emissions and pursuing low-cost alternative energy sources is the key issue regarding coal use and trade in North America. It is mentioned that decline of coal consumption is projected for Canada.
