Many industrial processes need heat that is NOT generated with electricity.
Natural gas has many use in the energy sector but is also needed in the manufacturing sector (making glass for example?)

- ausudhz 5y agoYes. But you can't replace manufacturing processes that need gas with electricity lol Germany import like 60/65% of the gas from Russia. Not all of that is used to generate electricity, I don't have the breakdown but I'm pretty sure that a big part goes to manufacturing
- throw-nocoiner 5y agoIt's about equally split between electricity, heating and industry
