Gas Consumption量 Statistics

In the following blog post, we will examine key statistics related to global natural gas consumption, with a focus on major consumer countries and sectors. From the United States to China, and from residential to industrial usage, these data points provide valuable insights into the role of natural gas in the world’s energy landscape. Let’s dive into the numbers and explore the patterns shaping this important aspect of energy consumption.

Statistic 1

"In 2020, the United States consumed approximately 22.83 trillion cubic feet of natural gas."

Statistic 2

"In 2020, China consumed about 330.4 billion cubic meters of natural gas."

Statistic 3

"In 2019, transportation accounted for about 29% of total U.S. energy consumption."

Statistic 4

"Industrial consumers used about 33% of total U.S. natural gas consumption in 2020."

Statistic 5

"Global natural gas consumption grew by 2% in 2019."

Statistic 6

"In 2019, the European Union (EU-27) consumed 491.5 billion cubic meters of natural gas."

Statistic 7

"Residential consumers used about 16% of total U.S. natural gas consumption in 2020."

Statistic 8

"In 2019, buildings accounted for about 40% of total U.S. energy consumption, a significant portion of which can be attributed to gas."

Statistic 9

"In Canada, natural gas accounted for nearly 35 percent of energy end-use consumption in 2016."

Statistic 10

"In 2020, Russia had the second largest consumption of natural gas worldwide, reaching nearly 509 billion cubic meters."

Statistic 11

"U.S. energy-related CO2 emissions from natural gas exceeded emissions from coal for each year since 2015."

Statistic 12

"In 2020, India consumed about 63.9 billion cubic meters of natural gas."

Statistic 13

"U.S. natural gas consumption declined by 2% in 2020."

Statistic 14

"Over the past decade, the share of natural gas in energy consumption in the EU has increased from 22% in 2007 to 24% in 2017."

Statistic 15

"In Canada, natural gas consumption is projected to increase by 22% from 2019 to 2039."

Statistic 16

"In the Middle East, natural gas represented about 50% of total energy consumption in 2018."

Statistic 17

"Japan's natural gas consumption was about 122 billion cubic meters in 2019."

Statistic 18

"In about 133 countries, natural gas was used for electricity generation in 2017."

Statistic 19

"Natural gas accounted for 29.2% of global electricity production in 2020."

Overall, the statistics presented on global and regional natural gas consumption reveal significant trends and patterns in energy usage. The United States remains a major consumer of natural gas, with industrial and residential sectors playing substantial roles. However, there is evidence of a decline in U.S. natural gas consumption, contrasting with global increases in consumption in other regions such as China, Russia, and India. The growing importance of natural gas in electricity generation worldwide is evident, with implications for energy policies and emissions reductions. Additionally, projected increases in natural gas consumption in Canada suggest continued reliance on this energy source in the coming years.
