The International Energy Agency (IEA) stated that ‘global demand for natural gas is increasing at a stronger rate in 2024 than in the previous two years.’ With global gas forecasted to rise by more than 2.5% in 2024 driven primarily by LNG being currently positioned as the bridging fuel of choice in the transition towards a carbon neutral energy future. As decarbonisation and net-zero targets remain critical priorities, ensuring a continued role for LNG and gas in the energy transition is essential.
To explore these vital topics, join the webinar “Navigating the challenges of decarbonisation across the LNG Value Chain,” ahead of the World LNG Summit & Awards 2024. Our panel of experts from the Center on Global Energy Policy, Dragon LNG, GIIGNL, JOGMEC, and MIQ will discuss how existing LNG infrastructure can be repurposed for renewable fuels. They will also address how tightening carbon reduction targets will impact LNG pricing and necessitate offset purchases by buyers.
