Europe LNG Terminals Buildout

Sector: LNG • Location: Multiple European countries

Source: Emerging Europe

Project
Partially Completed And Partially Shelved

Europe undertook a rapid expansion of liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals, installing or expanding 19 terminals since early 2022 to reduce dependence on Russian pipeline gas. However, due to overestimation of gas demand and a faster-than-expected energy transition, many terminals are underutilized, mothballed, or shut down, leading to surplus import capacity and financial losses.
