Natural gas consumption in the United States is forecast to increase 1 percent and set a record of 91.4 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) on average in 2025, according to an Aug. 25 statement from the Energy Information Administration (EIA).
The EIA expects “natural gas consumption to increase across all sectors except for electric power, which had been the source of most natural gas consumption growth in the previous decade” in its latest Short-Term Energy Outlook report.
