The U.S. wants to expand energy cooperation with its “awesome ally” India, including in natural gas and coal, nuclear, and clean cooking fuels, where New Delhi has been a “star”, U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright said on Wednesday (September 24, 2025).
“A lot of my early time when I arrived in my position was dealing with India, the world's largest democracy, an awesome ally of the United States, a fast growing economy, a truly dynamic society that of course has rapidly growing energy demand because people are increasing their prosperity, their opportunities,” Mr. Wright said in response to a question by PTI.
“I'm a huge fan of India. We love India. We look forward to more energy trade, more interactions back and forth with India,” he said.
