Teschego has the largest energy reserves of any Tierradorian commonwealth. However, its petroleum reserves have become somewhat depleted around the late 2020s to early 2030s, and the commonwealth had fallen to second in petroleum production after [[Ulunkheria]]. In the mid-2010s, the commonwealth's [[Teschego Department of Energy|Energy Department]] began to diversify its energy sources, including the subsidization of [[w:Nuclear power|nuclear]], [[w:Wind power|wind]], and [[w:Hydroelectricity|hydroelectric]] energy sources. While nuclear and hydroelectric power plants have existed in the commonwealth, they were only used for major population centers, such as Tataía and Apin Tascaí. In 2009, TDOE announced a new power grid, with a main focus on hydroelectric power with a few nuclear plants, with it spanning the entirety of the commonwealth. The [[Peratra Interconnection]] was completed in Teschego in 2028, with plans to expand it to Timbia by 2042. Teschego is one of two commonwealths to use its own, deregulated interconnecting energy grid. | Teschego has the largest energy reserves of any Tierradorian commonwealth.

Despite these advances in energy and the depletion of oil and gas reserves in the commonwealth, the petroleum industry still dominates the energy sector of Teschego's economy. Until 2029, Teschego was the largest producer of petroleum in Tierrador, now it being second, but by a very close margin. | Despite these advances in energy and the depletion of oil and gas reserves in the commonwealth, the petroleum industry still dominates the energy sector of Teschego's economy. Until 2029, Teschego was the largest producer of petroleum in Tierrador, now it being second, but by a very close margin. The commonwealth’s refineries are able to process 4.5 million barrels of oil per day, about 31% of Tierrador’s oil yield. The [[Cape Sudmoll Refinery]] off the commonwealth’s eastern coast is the largest refinery in Tierrador. Teschego is also home to 120 trillion cubic feet of natural gas reserves, the most in Tierrador. Many energy companies are based in Teschego, including [[TescheCo]], [[Polynesian Energy|POLY Energy]], [[Sudmoll Refining]], and [[Natukala]]. | ||
