LNG being much more expensive is pretty obvious - transportation costs are something like 90% of the final price. Pipelines are much more effective means of transportation for such things - build once, use for decades, at almost 0 marginal cost.
Reducing gas usage is entirely different topic, it would require to either: invest heavily in nuclear or: reopening of coal-powered plants.
