China's prolonged suspension of US LNG unravels global trade flows Global LNG trade flows – both spot cargoes and term deliveries – have to adapt to China's adamant stance towards US LNG imports: Policymakers in Beijing mandated China's state-dominated energy companies to stop importing US LNG imports since early February, with no easing in sight. The lost Chinese demand is forecast to slash the quarterly revenue of American LNG exporters by up to $3.8 billion, while oversupplied gas markets drive down prices in Asia as well as at the US Henry Hub. |

The Indian government has announced an ambitious pivot, aiming to raise gas to 15 percent of the energy mix by 2030 – a target repeatedly emphasised as part of making India a "gas-based economy." |

Taiwan pivots to LNG-fuelled power as nuclear exit nears Taiwan stands out among Asian LNG buyers as a country where gas demand has been rising steadily and substantially, not least due to the fast-approaching decommissioning of the country's last nuclear power station. The state-owned commodity importer CPC Corp, meanwhile, just got the green light to build a new LNG regas and import terminal at Kaohsiung – an additional option for future LNG imports as more shipments are lined up at Taiwan's existing terminals Yung An and Taichung Harbor in the first quarter of 2025; our Correspondent Anja Karl investigates. |
