We (the U.S. The E.U. and many others) need natural gas currently, as we have not completed the transition to low, and very-low greenhouse gas generation. However modern cogeneration plants can participate in the transition, per Part 1 of this series.

Also, there is a better and much more immediate need to improve international liquidity for this commodity. Some countries are really bad actors, and some of those same countries rely on natural gas exports to keep their economy afloat.

Some of these same countries have become methane ultra-emitters.

The big news is that this serves an immediate need and also builds a brighter future as biomethane exports start to ramp up.

I came across an article that discussed the transition of the U.S. as a major LNG supplier. Although this is still a work in progress, it is well underway, and both the US and EU are benefitting from this relationship. Go through the link below for more details..
