The US Department of Energy announced plans to loan up to 315,000 barrels from its Northeast Home Heating Oil Reserve to help ease rising heating oil prices ahead of winter. This temporary release, about one-third of the reserve, aims to mitigate supply disruptions caused by global conflicts and high demand, especially in New England where heating oil use is significant. Borrowers must return the oil plus a premium by the 2027-28 heating season. Officials urge states to invest in natural gas infrastructure to reduce future reliance on heating oil and lower costs long-term.
