The general state of the energy industry is in constant flux, from changing oil prices to the rise of more affordable renewable energy.
Throughout all this, natural gas has been long thought of as a viable option to improve decarbonization.
Gas is versatile in how it is used, as opposed to other energy sources such as oil and coal that are predominantly only used in one sector.
Gas may come to capture more of a market share as it supplants some of these other sources. In others, it may not be widely adopted or passed over in favor of renewable alternatives.
Infrastructure also plays a role. Some countries simply lack the foundation to distribute gas, making the barrier to entry much higher than other markets.
The future of natural gas will also change to accommodate for a widened definition of “gas�. Traditionally thought of as gases extracted from underground reservoirs, the natural gas of the future may also include more renewable gases.
Gas has a role to play in the future of energy. The big question is how large this role will be, and whether the gas industry can address some of its own shortcomings.
