Energy
In North Dakota, energy is a key industry and a vital sector in our increasingly more diversified economy. It is also a key industry for the nation. That’s because every other industry – and every American household – relies on dependable, affordable energy. Energy not only heats and cools our homes, powers our businesses and fuels our transportation systems, it also drives our economy.
