美国能源部确认逾1亿美元煤炭出口协议：Montana煤炭三年供应马来西亚
华盛顿——美国能源部（DOE）碳氢化合物和地热能源办公室（HGEO）10月26日宣布，该办公室已于10月23日在Wyoming州Laramie与Navajo Transitional Energy Company（NTEC）共同确认一项为期三年、总值逾1亿美元的煤炭供应协议：NTEC将把其位于Montana州的Spring Creek Mine所产煤炭供应马来西亚。
据能源部公告，买方为马来西亚的TNB Fuel Services，该公司是马来西亚最大电力公司Tenaga Nasional Berhad（TNB）的燃料采购子公司。NTEC是一家由Navajo Nation拥有的能源公司。能源部称，这项协议将进一步加强美国与马来西亚之间的能源贸易联系。
能源部表示，这项协议承接了更广泛的美马贸易承诺——那些承诺是在特朗普总统2025年10月访问Kuala Lumpur期间宣布的，其中包括每年向TNB Fuel销售4,270万美元的美国煤炭。
能源部碳氢化合物和地热能源办公室代理助理部长Curt Coccodrilli说：「这项协议是一个很好的例子，说明把美国煤炭生产商与国际伙伴联系起来能带来什么。最初只是走访Montana和Wyoming的煤矿，如今已变成美国煤炭出口和地区繁荣的一个重大机会。在特朗普总统的领导下，我们专注于打开新市场、加强我们的煤炭产业，并支持让这一切成为可能的美国工人和社区。」
能源部称，HGEO将继续与美国煤炭生产商协调，支持本届政府加强美国煤炭产业、扩大美国能源出口的承诺。
U.S. Department of Energy Recognizes Over $100 Million Coal Export Agreement: Montana Coal to Supply Malaysia for Three Years
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Hydrocarbons and Geothermal Energy Office (HGEO) announced on October 26 that it had joined Navajo Transitional Energy Company (NTEC) in Laramie, Wyoming, on October 23, 2026, to recognize a three-year coal supply agreement valued at more than $100 million with Malaysia's TNB Fuel Services. Under the agreement, NTEC, a Navajo Nation-owned energy company, will supply coal from its Spring Creek Mine in Montana to Malaysia.
TNB Fuel Services is the fuel procurement subsidiary of Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), Malaysia's largest electric utility, according to the Department of Energy. DOE said the agreement will further strengthen energy trade ties between the United States and Malaysia.
The agreement builds on broader U.S.-Malaysia trade commitments announced during President Trump's October 2025 visit to Kuala Lumpur, including $42.7 million annually in U.S. coal sales to TNB Fuel, DOE said.
"This agreement is a great example of what's possible when we bring American coal producers together with international partners," said Curt Coccodrilli, DOE Acting Assistant Secretary of the Hydrocarbons and Geothermal Energy Office. "What started with a visit to coal mines in Montana and Wyoming has turned into a major opportunity for American coal exports and regional prosperity. Under President Trump's leadership, we're focused on opening new markets, strengthening our coal industry, and supporting the American workers and communities that make it all possible."
Through continued coordination with American coal producers, HGEO is supporting the administration's commitment to strengthening the U.S. coal industry, expanding American energy exports, and supporting the workers and communities that power the nation, DOE said.
