Coronavirus: impact on US gas markets (24 July update)
*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
Despite recent moderation of the record July 2020 heat wave, much above normal temperatures continue to result in record daily US gas power demand. Power demand remains higher year-over-year due to structural changes in the generation stack as well as economic coal-to-gas switching at very low gas prices. However, power demand could have been even higher if not for the “scarring” of the economy by the coronavirus pandemic. Industrial demand also continues to recover with the re-opening of the economy across various sectors and commercial demand seems close to full restoration. We will continue to monitor and refresh our prior insight as noteworthy changes occur.
