Is natural gas the 'bridge' to our low-carbon future? In power
generation, industrial processes, parts of the transportation
sector, and for domestic use, natural gas still has the potential
to play a greater role in various energy transition pathways around
the world. But such a future is by no means certain. In this book,
Michael Bradshaw and Tim Boersma offer a sober and balanced
assessment of the place of natural gas in the global energy mix
today, and the uncertainties that cloud our understanding of what
that role may look like in the future. They argue that natural gas
has become prominent in recent decades, spurred by two revolutions:
the first has been the rise of unconventional natural gas
production, and the second the coming of age of the market for
liquefied natural gas (LNG). However, a third revolution is
required to secure natural gas' long-term role in various energy
transition pathways, as countries are increasingly pushing to
address air quality concerns and curtail greenhouse gas emissions.
This revolution has to take place as politicians, citizens,
investors and shareholders are becoming increasingly vocal about
the need to improve the environmental footprint of the fuel, while
simultaneously, and perhaps paradoxically, demand for it continues
to grow, in a world where geopolitical challenges seem to be
mounting.
