Outlook 2024: The evolution of gas infrastructure

In the ever-changing landscape of global energy, the European gas infrastructure is undergoing a remarkable transformation, poised to play a pivotal role in shaping Europe’s energy future

Recent global events have underscored how geopolitical challenges can disrupt gas supply chains, reinforcing Europe’s need to enhance its energy independence.
