To help meet growing global energy demand responsibly, TotalEnergies is making significant investments in solar and wind generation, as well as battery energy storage solutions, with the ambition of becoming one of the world's top five renewable energy producers by 2030.

The United States power market is a strategic priority for TotalEnergies and its Gas, Renewables & Power (GRP) business segment, leveraging the Company's well-established natural gas and commodities platform.

TGPNA is responsible for a broad range of commercial activities, including marketing and trading, transportation, storage, exports, and other services that support TotalEnergies' U.S. energy portfolio. This portfolio primarily encompasses natural gas, natural gas liquids (NGLs), power, and environmental products, all of which play a critical role in advancing the Company's integrated multi-energy strategy.

Operating in a dynamic and highly competitive environment, the U.S. Trading Origination Team plays a central role in developing and executing TotalEnergies' commercial strategy across U.S. energy markets. The team is instrumental in identifying growth opportunities, creating value across the energy portfolio, and supporting the Company's ambition to become a leading multi-energy provider focused on the energies of the future.
