- badpun 4y agoThis link is only about LNG, i.e. natural gas in its liquid form. I suspect that's why Germany is missing from the chart altogether. In any case, it does not show the whole picture.
- Sakos 4y agoWhat is missing? Germany doesn't have LNG terminals, so obviously they're not on there. LNG is regasified to export to Germany through European countries that do have LNG terminals. Much of the increased LNG import is going to Germany. I'm not sure where you're expecting natural gas in gaseous state to come from. It's generally transported in LNG form unless there's a pipeline (like between Germany and Russia). There aren't a lot of those connecting Europe to gas producers outside Europe, which is one reason why we're in this mess. LNG imports to Europe are up significantly compared to before the war. The link shows that. I feel like you don't really understand what's happening.
- badpun 4y agoYou said "we're currently importing far more gas that we did before the war", but gave a link that only covers gas imports in LNG form, not in gaseous form. So, it doesn't include the Nord Stream, Yamal–Europe and other pipelines.
