The Bureau of Energy Resources (ENR) will ensure that all our diplomatic relationships advance our interests in having access to secure, reliable, and ever-cleaner sources of energy. The establishment of ENR is a direct result of the Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Review (QDDR).

The Bureau of Energy Resources has three core objectives:

  • Energy Diplomacy: To manage the geopolitics of today’s energy economy through reinvigorated energy diplomacy with major producers and consumers;
  • Energy Transformation: To stimulate the market forces that will sustain transformational energy policies in terms of alternative energy, electricity, development, and reconstruction.
  • Energy Transparency and Access: To expand good governance, increase transparency, and improve commercially viable and environmentally sustainable access to the 1.3 billion people without energy services.

Ambassador Carlos Pascual, the Secretary’s Special Envoy and Coordinator for International Energy Affairs, is leading the Bureau. Ambassador Richard Morningstar will remain the Special Envoy for Eurasian Energy and will work closely with the Bureau of Energy Resources. The Bureau will operate under the oversight of Under Secretary Robert D. Hormats (E).
