Which country is the largest importer of U.S. natural gas?
Note
Mexico is the largest importer of U.S. natural gas, largely through pipelines that connect the two nations.
Mexico is the top importer of U.S. natural gas, with the vast majority of this energy transported via pipelines that run across the U.S.-Mexico border. The two countries have a strong energy trade relationship, with Mexico relying on U.S. natural gas for power generation, industrial use, and residential heating. This reliance has grown due to Mexico’s increasing demand for cleaner energy, as well as the decline in its natural gas production. U.S. exports of natural gas to Mexico help meet the country's energy needs while benefiting the U.S. economy by tapping into the international market for natural gas.
