According to the International Energy Agency Global, the demand of natural gas is going to drop as
never before this year. The reasons are the spread of Covid-19 and the mild climate which has
spread all over the world.
Consumption is set to slump by 4% in 2020, while global demand is expected to rise by just 1.5%
annually to 2025, compared with a previous forecast of 1.8%.
IEA executive director Fatih Birol said “Natural gas has so far experienced a less severe impact
than oil and coal, but it is far from immune from the current crisis.”
