European Nov Gas Demand Down Nearly 25% y-o-y

NATURAL GAS

European gas consumption fell by close to 25% on a yearly basis in November according to the IEA.

  • It is the steepest monthly decline this year, with a drop of 13 bcm in absolute terms.
  • Unseasonably mild weather, especially in the first half of the month, depressed residential and commercial demand, sending it down by over 30%.
  • Industrial gas demand, which suffered the most so far this year, fell less steeply, by an estimated 5-10%.
  • Lower than expected demand is protecting European gas storages, which are still 93% full -well-above their 5y average.
