Natural gas distributors in Canada, including gas distribution utilities, gas marketers and brokers, have faltered because of the highly volatile world and domestic natural gas prices. Revenue has fluctuated in line with changes in natural gas prices, although the rates paid for natural gas by downstream consumers haven't been as volatile. Prices began to drop amid the US shale gas boom and continued as the pandemic severely reduced the need for gas across commercial and industrial markets. Even so, prices rebounded after the pandemic, allowing distributors to salvage some revenue slightly. Overall, revenue is set to push down at a CAGR of 5.1% through 2024, reaching $20.4 billion, including a 7.8% uptick in 2024 alone. Profit has remained elevated as purchase costs dropped alongside lower prices. The need for natural gas has been pushed down along with a drop in revenue. More regulation and wild swings in price have influenced customers to switch gas stoves for electric ones and reduce natural gas usage. Some municipalities, including Laval, Quebec and Montreal, have banned the installation of new natural gas appliances. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions has been a big priority for governments in recent years, and similar bans will likely come into effect in other locations. Natural gas distributors are still investing in modern and up-to-date infrastructure to meet strict regulatory requirements. Despite continued investment in infrastructure, natural gas prices are set to dip double digits throughout the outlook period. The continued popularity of renewable energy will pose a threat as consumers and businesses switch. Overall, revenue is set to push down at a CAGR of 1.1%, reaching $19.3 billion in 2029.

Countries in Europe have some of the highest natural gas prices for the industry in the world. In the second quarter of 2024, industrial customers in Switzerland paid approximately 0.16 U.S. dollars per megawatt hour worth of natural gas. This was considerably higher than the price of gas in natural gas producing countries such as Russia and Algeria. Determining natural gas prices Like other commodities, natural gas prices are driven by supply and demand trends. In some instances, they may also reflect developments within the oil market, as both commodities are often produced together. Natural gas prices are volatile. Seeing as the consumption of natural gas is often without alternative (e.g. within power plants), short-term changes to supply and demand have huge repercussions for the market. Weather is also a common determinant of natural gas prices. Unprecedented heat waves in the U.S. have driven up electricity demand for air conditioning and affected weekly Henry Hub natural gas prices in the hotter summer months. Natural gas demand Primary energy demand generated by natural gas worldwide is highest in North America. Nevertheless, forecasts suggest that the Asia Pacific region will experience a doubling in such demand by 2050 and overtake consumers in North America. The United States is still leading a ranking of world natural gas consumption by country. However, China has increased its LNG and gas pipeline investment portfolio, which could see it becoming an even greater consumer in the future.

Report Scope</strong&g

In 2024, the price of natural gas in Europe reached 11 constant U.S. dollars per million British thermal units, compared with 2.2 U.S. dollars in the U.S. This was a notable decrease compared to the previous year, which had seen a steep increase in prices due to an energy supply shortage exacerbated by the Russia-Ukraine war. Since 1980, natural gas prices have typically been higher in Europe than in the United States and are expected to remain so for the coming two years. This is due to the U.S. being a significantly larger natural gas producer than Europe. What is natural gas and why is it gaining ground in the energy market? Natural gas is commonly burned in power plants with combustion turbines that generate electricity or used as a heating fuel. Given the fact that the world’s energy demand continues to grow, natural gas was seen by some industry leaders as an acceptable "bridge-fuel" to overcome the use of more emission-intensive energy sources such as coal. Subsequently, natural gas has become the main fuel for electricity generation in the U.S., while the global gas power generation share has reached over 22 percent. How domestic production shapes U.S. natural gas prices The combination of hydraulic fracturing (“fracking”) and horizontal drilling can be regarded as one of the oil and gas industry’s biggest breakthroughs in decades, with the U.S. being the largest beneficiary. This technology has helped the industry release unprecedented quantities of gas from deposits, mainly shale and tar sands that were previously thought either inaccessible or uneconomic. It is forecast that U.S. shale gas production could reach 36 trillion cubic feet in 2050, up from 1.77 trillion cubic feet in 2000.
