A conversation with Adam Sieminski, former administrator of the U.S. Energy Information Administration
The energy sector is undergoing revolutionary changes with the introduction of abundant, lower-cost energy sources like shale oil and gas and solar and wind—a trend owed largely to tremendous technological improvements in recent years.

What role has technology played in the energy landscape in recent years, and what role could it play in the future? And, will policies introduced by President Trump change the energy outlook?
