Natural gas has long been an integral part of the European energy mix - accelerated by the expansion of liquefied natural gas (LNG), a flexible energy source that can be reliably transported over long distances to wherever it is needed.<\/p>

With the increase in demand for electricity and the transition to lower-CO\u2082 technologies, natural gas will remain indispensable in the short term - especially as a bridging technology for industry, power plants and the heating sector.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
