Meanwhile, domestic gas consumption is projected to increase from a record 91.9 bcfd in 2025 to 92.2 bcfd in 2026 and 94.3 bcfd in 2027.

While China dominates several energy sectors, the United States has established its reputation as the world’s dominant natural gas power.
natural gas development for several decades; however, this is now changing due to the rush to build data centres for AI in the United States, according to a Global Energy Monitor (GEM) report.
The United States is now constructing around twice as much gas-fired capacity as China, and more than any other country worldwide, following a 76 per cent rise in under-construction projects in the first half of the year.
gas power capacity at any stage of development has risen by 50 per cent, from 252 GW to 378 GW, since January, which contributes a third of the global total.
