Research Reports
📑 Global Energy Review 2026
The IEA's Global Energy Review 2026 assesses the trends that took place in 2025 across the energy sector worldwide, covering major fuels, technologies, and regions.
It works well as a lead report in the research section because it frames LNG and gas within the broader annual shifts across power, oil, coal, renewables, and global energy demand.
🔗 Read Report📑 The Role of Gas in Powering AI-Driven Energy Demand
This report highlights that electricity demand growth is accelerating as data centres become the new “industrial load” of the AI economy, with their electricity consumption projected to double to 800-1000 TWh by 2030.
While renewables may provide about half of data-centre demand by 2030, their variability does not match the flat 24/7 load profile. The report argues for fact-based, transparent long-term planning and explains why gas remains a key source of dispatchable capacity to support AI-driven demand growth.

In 2024, global natural gas consumption reached 4.13 trillion cubic meters, with the growth rate rising from 0.1% last year to 2.5%, mainly due to lower international gas prices, moderate global economic recovery, and extreme summer heat in the Northern Hemisphere.
