Expansion of TotalEnergies in the United States
Since its entry into the United States in 1957, TotalEnergies has invested nearly $11 billion in the country over the past three years, aiming to accelerate its development in oil, liquefied natural gas (LNG), and low-carbon electricity. In 2024, the company exported over 10 million tons of LNG, consolidating its position as a leader in the U.S. market.

The United States, a strategic market for TotalEnergies
The United States is also a key market for TotalEnergies’ Integrated Power strategy, with nearly 10 GW of solar, wind, and battery storage projects already installed or under construction. In March 2025, S&P Global Ratings assigned TotalEnergies Holdings USA an ‘A+’ issuer credit rating with a stable outlook, reflecting the strong financial position of its subsidiary.
