Natural gas prices decreased across all major regions in 2024, as supply caught up to higher demand. In Japan, LNG sold for an average of **** nominal U.S. dollars per million British thermal units. Meanwhile, the United States, as the largest natural gas producer worldwide, has significantly lower prices for the fossil fuel. The U.S. has had lower natural gas prices than Europe for much of the past four decades. LNG on the rise LNG is expected to shape much of future natural gas trade. Although pipelines have been the preferred method of transportation for many decades, as Europe shifts away from Russia as its main gas supplier, LNG has become more in demand. The global LNG trade volume has already exceeded *** billion cubic meters per year, and is expected to continue growing. Countries in Asia have some of the highest landed prices for liquefied natural gas worldwide. Natural gas benchmarks Some of the most closely followed natural gas price benchmarks are the U.S. Henry Hub and the Dutch TTF. The former is an important indicator of the state of the natural gas industry in the U.S., while the latter reflects natural gas market developments in Europe and potential repercussions for consumers.

Natural gas account for 1/4 of the global demand and roughly 1/3 of the US energy demand. After oil, Natural gas is the most dominate sort of energy. So, being about to improve natural gas demand prediction is extremely valuable.

On September 26, 2025, the Henry Hub natural gas spot price amounted to 2.91 U.S. dollars per million British thermal units. Since 2022, spikes in prices are usually related to cold fronts impacting refiners. The European gas benchmark Dutch TTF also rose amid colder weather. What is Henry Hub? The Henry Hub price is seen as the most important benchmark for the U.S. natural gas market. As of 1990, it has been used for pricing of natural gas traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange and later the Intercontinental Exchange. The hub in question is a distribution pipeline system in Louisiana and began operating in the 1950s. The highest Henry Hub annual average prices were recorded in 2005 and 2008, when they climbed to over eight U.S. dollars per million British thermal units. Weekly average prices also reached nearly 10 U.S. dollars in 2022 as a result of global supply constraints. Natural gas export prices In recent years, the U.S. has been incentivized to build up its liquefaction and LNG export capacities as it widens the potential customer pool. With sanctions on Russian energy imports, many European countries looked to the U.S. for procuring natural gas from 2022 onward. In line with Henry Hub pricing development, the monthly LNG export price also showed volatility depending on market and geopolitical events.

TTF Gas fell to 27.92 EUR/MWh on December 3, 2025, down 0.17% from the previous day. Over the past month, TTF Gas's price has fallen 14.22%, and is down 40.94% compared to the same time last year, according to trading on a contract for difference (CFD) that tracks the benchmark market for this commodity. EU Natural Gas - values, historical data, forecasts and news - updated on December of 2025.

Countries in Europe have some of the highest natural gas prices for the industry in the world. In the first quarter of 2025, industrial customers in Switzerland paid approximately 0.17 U.S. dollars per kilowatt hour worth of natural gas. This was considerably higher than the price of gas in natural gas producing countries such as Russia. 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.

The average monthly price for natural gas in the United States amounted to *** nominal U.S. dollars per million British thermal units (Btu) in October 2025. By contrast, natural gas prices in Europe were about three times higher than those in the U.S. Prices in Europe tend to be notably higher than those in the U.S. as the latter benefits from being a major hydrocarbon producer. Europe's import reliance European prices for natural gas rose most notable throughout the second half of 2021 and much of 2022, peaking at over ** U.S. dollars per million Btu in August 2022. The sharp rise was due to supply chain issues and economic strain following the COVID-19 pandemic, which was further exacerbated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in early 2022. As a result of the war, many countries began looking for alternative sources, and Russian pipeline gas imports to the European Union declined as a result. Meanwhile, LNG was a great beneficiary, with LNG demand in Europe rising by more than ** percent between 2021 and 2024. How domestic natural gas production shapes prices As intimated, the United States’ position among the leaders of worldwide natural gas production is one of the main reasons for why prices for this commodity are so low across the country. In 2024, the U.S. produced more than ************ cubic meters of natural gas, which allays domestic demand and allows for far lower purchasing prices.

Natural gas distributors have benefited mainly from the enormous outburst of natural gas availability in the United States since the early 2000s because of the growing prevalence of advanced drilling techniques employed by upstream producers in the Oil Drilling and Gas Extraction industry. Natural gas is used to generate electricity, produce useful thermal output and as an industrial feedstock. Many end users, mainly electric power plants, have been pressed to transition to using this energy source at the expense of others because of its increased affordability and comparatively lower environmental impact. Despite the rising popularity of renewable energy like wind and solar, natural gas already has years of historical infrastructure built, making the supply chain much easier to navigate, leading the country to rely on it for most of its energy needs. Revenue is set to swell at a CAGR of 6.9% through the end of 2025 to $222.5 billion, including a 27.4% uptick in 2025, as gas prices will rebound. Despite revenue growing swiftly as the need for gas overwhelmingly expanded during the current period, distributors have also endured wild swings in revenue because of highly volatile market conditions. For example, the price of natural gas fell in 2020 amid shutdowns as excess supply was built. Prices then spiked in 2021 and 2022 before falling again in 2023 as the industry stabilized following economic turmoil. Despite all this, the residential sector has been a saving grace, as prices have continued to climb yearly despite outside factors. While profit has remained volatile it has also pushed up, but fell from its peak in 2022. Natural gas production will climb marginally, while infrastructure investments will boost pipeline and export capacity. Because of global tensions, exports are set to strengthen as European countries rely on natural gas liquid, leading to more distribution activity. Even so, domestic consumption may see some constrained amid warmer weathers and slow shifts to renewable energy. Prices are also set to remain stagnant, which may prevent significant revenue spikes. Overall, revenue is set to climb at a CAGR of 0.3% through the end of 2030 to $226.5 billion.

In 2024, the industrial natural gas price in the United States was 3.93 U.S. dollars per thousand cubic feet. This was a decrease compared to the previous year. In 2008, the U.S. price of natural gas for industry peaked at 9.65 U.S. dollars per thousand cubic feet as a result of the Great Recession. Despite the increase in natural gas prices for the industry sector in recent years, natural gas prices for other sectors were much higher. Regional price variations across U.S. hubs Natural gas prices can vary significantly across different regions of the United States. In 2024, the Waha trading hub in the Permian basin recorded the lowest spot prices due to its proximity to productive oil and gas wells and limited pipeline capacity. Meanwhile, the Henry Hub, which serves as the U.S. natural gas benchmark, averaged 2.2 U.S. dollars per million British thermal units in 2024. Looking ahead, forecasts suggest that Henry Hub prices could more than double by 2026, driven by increased demand. Industry natural gas prices around the world Switzerland has some of the highest natural gas prices for the industrial sector. U.S. prices are especially low in comparison to European countries, which rely on imports. U.S. industrial natural gas consumers paid around one fourth of the price paid by Swiss consumers.
