Energy Insight

How does a gas exchange work? Where do gas exchanges operate in Europe? How do large companies hedge against stock market price volatility? What can they trade other than commodities? Let's find the answers to these questions!

Energy transition is one of the biggest challenges of our generation. It is a global duty to use renewable energy sources instead of fossil fuels.

People who are considering building a new building often think about using alternative heating methods. These might be more expensive (considering the building costs), but with time – we mean decades – these investments can turn into a cost-saving alternative.

Households, factories, companies, and nations: they all depend on energy sources. But what type of energy sources do we use? How much energy do we consume? And what can we do to reduce our ecological footprint?

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is a type of natural gas. Natural gas is mostly transported through countries and continents by pipelines. But what if a pipeline system cannot be established?

Fossil fuels are still the main sources of energy, and we have not reached the peak of fossil energy usage. Whole systems, cities, and industries are based on fossil fuels, and the demand is not decreasing but increasing. Fossil fuels will run out for sure, but until that point, the suppliers have to serve demand.

What is the heat value of natural gas? It depends on the country and the pipelines, so the value can differ from 34 to 52 MJ/m3 (950 to 1,050 BTU/SCF).

Renewable energy is the future, not just because it is greener and has no carbonization and greenhouse effects, but also because we are running out of oil, petroleum, coal, and natural gas. In 50 years, most of our resources will be gone. Switching to renewable sources of energy is a process, and we consider natural gas and shale gas as a bridge solution between now and the future

Natural gas processing has many stages: extraction, removals, separation, liquifying. The natural gas used in households is different in many ways from the extracted, raw natural gas.

Natural gas (also called fossil gas) is a hydrocarbon gas occurring below the surface. Depending on how deep it hides under the Earth’s crust, there are different types of fracturing.
