Comment
Total natural gas consumption in 2030 is based on Fit-for-55 scenario from the Analysis of the European LNG market developments – ACER 2025 Monitoring Report. The values for 2026, 2028 and 2035 are interpolated between 2024 data (EUROSTAT) and the 2030 projection. Gas consumption in electricity sector is estimated from ERAA 2024 electricity production by gas-fired and combined heat and power plants, taking into account their efficiencies. The reduction in natural gas consumption from electrolysers and heat pumps is estimated based on their electricity use in ERAA 2024 and assumed efficiencies: electrolysers produce hydrogen at 75% efficiency, while heat pumps replace gas heating at 350% efficiency.
