Support for Energy-Related Industries

Ex-Im Bank supported a wide variety of U.S. companies that participated in foreign energy-production projects, including those producing energy from renewable sources. In FY 2011, the Bank

Authorized more than $7.7 billion to support U.S. exports related to the energy sector, which included energy-extraction industries, pipelines and power generation, including renewable energy.

Authorized $721.4 million to finance renewable-energy exports and exports to renewable-energy projects. This amount far exceeded the amounts authorized for these exports in the previous three fiscal years ($332 million in FY 2010, $101 million in FY 2009 and $30.4 million in FY 2008). See Renewable Energy.

Approved 79 transactions under loan, guarantee and working capital guarantee products and approximately 80 new and renewed export-credit insurance policies to finance U.S. exports related to foreign-energy development, production and transmission. These activities include electric-power generation and transmission, coal mining, oil-field and gas-field exploration, development and production, pipelines and refineries in countries that included India, Colombia, Mexico, South Africa and Turkey.

Financed the sale of $1.7 billion of U.S. exports of goods and services to five new fossil-fuel power plants. The Bank estimates that the aggregate amount of carbon-dioxide emissions produced directly by these projects will total approximately 63.95 million metric tons per year. Of this amount, 56.3 million tons is estimated to be produced by two coal-fired power plants projects and 7.65 million tons is estimated to be produced by three gas-fueled combined-cycle power plant projects.

Financed the sale of $3.2 billion of U.S. exports to oil-field and gas-field exploration, development and production projects, two oil-refinery projects, an ethanol production facility and a natural gas pipeline project. The Bank estimates that the aggregate amount of carbon-dioxide emissions produced directly by these projects will total approximately 4.05 million metric tons per year. Of this amount, 1.1 million tons is estimated to be produced by the oil and gas field development and production projects, 2.2 million tons is estimated to be produced by two petroleum refining projects, 0.45 million tons is estimated to be produced by a natural gas pipeline project, and 0.3 million tons is estimated to be produced by an ethanol production project.
