3 Natural Gas Stocks to Gain From Rising Clean Energy Demand
Werte in diesem Artikel
To combat climate change, the world is gradually demanding cleaner fuel, which in turn is boosting demand for natural gas. The increasing number of data centers across the globe requires massive amounts of natural gas-driven electricity. Also, mounting U.S. LNG exports reflect rising demand for the commodity from different corners of the world. Thus, it seems that the business scenario of companies involved in the exploration and production of natural gas and in transporting and storing the commodity is highly favorable. In its latest short-term energy outlook, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (“EIA”) revealed that it expects the natural gas spot price at $3.40 per million BTU for 2025, higher than $2.20 per million BTU last year. Higher prices are likely to aid the exploration and production companies’ bottom line.3 Stocks to Gain: EQT, KMI, AREQT Corporation EQT is a leading producer of natural gas in the United States, having a strong presence in the Appalachian basin, one of the most prolific basins in the domestic market.
