European gas demand will gradually decline next decade, then collapse rapidly post-2030, if governments implement climate policy pledges, a conference heard on Tuesday.
Jonathan Stern of the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies said the slow decline in EU gas demand will accelerate dramatically “if we are serious about decarbonisation”. The rapid decline post-2030 accelerates even further in long-term scenarios looking beyond 2040.
