Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) Will Supply the World with Natural Gas Well into the Future
Although the world continues to transition to a future of low fossil fuels and low carbon energy, it appears that LNG will be a part of the energy mix for many years. Continued efforts to decarbonize LNG as much as possible will be important for LNG to be a beneficial part of the energy transition.

Is Natural Gas So Cheap Producers Have to Pay People to Take It?
Historically low natural gas prices are great for consumers but not so great for producers who often depend on market-based gas prices to cover their costs and provide a profit. In some regions, producers are even having to pay market participants to take gas off their hands. How and why does this happen?

Gas Infrastructure Has Big Impacts on New England Energy Marketplace
It appears that failure to built infrastructure that expands import capacity of either electricity or natural gas leaves New England vulnerable to extreme price spikes and even reliability issues on high peak demand days. New England is hoping a combination of new technologies and end-use customer market participation can be a valid substitute for large infrastructure projects.
