According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, LNG is projected to become a much larger share of U.S. natural gas consumption, rising from current levels of around 2.5% of total natural gas consumption to 12.4% by 2030. Because natural gas and LNG are substitutes, natural gas prices...

The current 13th Five-Year Plan endorses the use of natural gas to achieve a cleaner energy mix. The objective of this research is to examine household natural gas demand and provide insights to natural gas exporters. Research on natural gas demand and cycles in China is valuable, because small...

Saudi Arabia expects to double its natural gas production within the next decade. This increased domestic supply is expected to meet the demand for gas from Saudi Arabia's industrial development and, most importantly, to displace liquid fuels in its electricity sector. Given the strong seasonal...

Despite its importance for policy purposes (including climate policy and the energy transition), the literature on the price elasticity of natural gas demand in the residential sector is very limited and based on inference from situations with modest variation in prices. We focus on a locale and...

Estimating a static coefficient for a deseasoned gas storage or weather variable implicitly assumes that market participants react identically throughout the year (and over each year) to that variable. In this analysis we model natural gas returns as a linear function of gas storage and weather...

When natural gas prices are subject to periodic decoupling from oil prices, for instance due to peak-load pricing, conventional linear models of price dynamics such as the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) can lead to erroneous inferences about cointegration relationships, price adjustments...
